Mohammad Amir has apparently intensified his off-field competition with former Pakistan captain Babar Azam. The veteran pacer recently shared a controversial Instagram video featuring a social media cricket analyst praising Amir’s record over Babar, especially in PSL clashes. Amir uploaded the video one day after he faced a difficult performance at Gaddafi Stadium. The Peshawar Zalmi captain attacked him during match three of the Pakistan Super League 2026 at Gaddafi Stadium. On Sunday, March 29, Amir reshared the clip, where the self-proclaimed expert openly criticized Babar, adding more fuel to the ongoing narrative around the two cricketers. The post's timing shows that Amir experienced a minor response after his match with the Zalmi captain in Lahore. The analyst in the video shows that Amir has historically performed better than Babar during their PSL matches even though the pacer was unable to get Babar out in their most recent matchup. Babar Azam provided Peshawar Zalmi with an excellent start during their match against RawalpindiZ pacer Mohammad Amir which resulted in 215 runs. The stylish batter struck two crisp boundaries in the opening over and raced to a quick 39 runs. Babar opened his batting with a stylish cover drive which he followed by a perfectly timed flick that went between mid-on and mid-wicket to end the over. Amir still maintains an exceptional record against Babar in their PSL matchups despite his recent injury. The pacer reached three dismissals against him while Babar maintained an overall average of 14.3 and a strike rate of 104.9.

Amir has consistently expressed his thoughts about Babar's performance through various television programs and his YouTube channel. The former speedster once called Babar a “not a brave captain” who lacked proper decision-making skills. Amir has made positive comments about Babar while recognizing him as one of Pakistan's leading batsmen. Babar's aggressive beginning to the match established a base which enabled Peshawar Zalmi to achieve a commanding victory in their third game of the PSL 2026 season. The captain scored 39 off 28 balls, while opener Mohammad Haris led the scoring with 47. Zalmi succeeded in chasing their huge target because Michael Bracewell and Abdul Samad both made fast 30 runs.
