“I love people who succeed in life overcoming various odds. Recently my wife told me about this scientist (Hawking) who was not able to walk or talk but he became world famous,” he said.
THREE HAT-TRICK WISH
Amir, who has taken 212 wickets in international cricket, wants to claim a hat-trick in all three formats of the game. “I want to take a hat-trick in Tests, ODIs and T20Is,” he said when asked about one wish he would like to fulfil in his cricket career.
He also wishes for the discontinuation of free hits off no-balls. “I wish there were no free hit off a no-ball,” said the pacer, who doesn’t like to see batsmen playing pull shots off his bowling.
BOLLYWOOD AND FOOTBALL FAN
The Pakistan speedster is apparently also a fan of Bollywood movies and wants Shahid Kapoor to play him if ever a biopic on his life is made. Coincidentally, Shahid Kapoor-starring Padmaavat is the last movie he has watched.
Amir has a penchant for football too with Argentina’s Sergio Agüero his favouirte footballer.
