Pathan, in a message on Twitter, tagged Mohammad Aamir and said, “Recently I met Aamir in the Lanka Premier League (LPL).

Ramiz Raja also took to Twitter to shared a nugget of wisdom
Mohammad Amir retires. Sad untimely exit of a potential super star! And a lesson for aspiring youth: Respect your talent and understand your responsibilities. Don’t mistake wealth for respect. Respect is earned by having a strong character and not by worldly glitzy shit!
