Pakistan pacer Mohammad Aamir was Friday booed on his return to international cricket by the crowd during the first Twenty20 match against New Zealand in Auckland. The 23-year-old left-arm pacer was making his first appearance for Pakistan since returning from a five-year ban and jail time for being implicated in a spot-fixing scandal in 2010. Pakistan defeated the hosts by 16 runs to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series, with Mohammad Hafeez scoring 61 as they reached 171 for eight. Shahid Afridi's astute captaincy coupled with an all-round effort, helped Pakistan overcome New Zealand's challenge.

Indian opener Rohit Sharma has called Pakistan's tainted speedster just a 'normal bowler', while he heralded India's young sensation Jasprit Bumrah as a 'rare talent'. Incidentally, Amir had dismissed Rohit, Ajinkya Rahane and Suresh Raina in quick successions in the Asia Cup encounter. But Rohit said that the hype around Amir was 'unjustified' and the 23-year old, who served a match-fixing ban had a long way to go before being compared with legends. "Stop talking about him already," Rohit said of Amir in Kolkata. "He isn't the only bowler, Pakistan have five other bowlers who are doing well for them. "There is just so much hype around Amir, I don't think it is right to give him too much hype after one match. He is good but he needs to prove it over and over again. "Now people are comparing him to Wasim Akram and all that. He is just a normal bowler, on that given day if he is good, he is good. It is not as if he turns up and blows everyone away."
