Former Pakistani pacer Mohammad Amir's dig at national team captain Babar Azam came back to bite him after Babar scored 68 runs on his Peshawar debut against his former side Karachi Kings in the new PSL season.

Amir, when asked about facing Babar before the match, had said that bowling to Pakistani skipper takes the same amount of effort as bowling to a tailender does. However, that wasn't the case as Babar's all-important knock helped the Zalmi win on the night.

Following Amir's statement, Peshawar Zalmi's Twitter account also mocked the out-of-favour pacer by showcasing Babar's name in the tailenders' section in their scorecard after their 2-run win.
