LAHORE: Pakistan star players Mohammad Amir and Shoaib Malik will be playing at the 2021 Caribbean Premier League which takes place in St Kitts & Nevis in August and September this year. The Barbados Tridents have secured the services of Pakistani left-arm seamer Mohammad Amir. With 220 T20 wickets to his name, 59 of them coming in international matches, Amir has a huge amount of experience and a track record of success across the globe.
