India overcame a fiery opening spell from Pakistan bowler Mohammad Amir to pummel their bitter rivals by five wickets in a key Asia Cup Twenty20 match in the Bangladeshi capital Dhaka on Saturday.

I think its one of the finest fiery accurate spell ever witnessed. Had Virat given out, he would have run through the remaining middle order. At least Amir had brought some smile on the shattered faces of Pakistanis.

Good work young man, that was some bowling. Fireworks spectacular! Oh boy, what a way to announce ones return. Can't wait to see you perform in the longer version of the game. Stay blessed.

Reminds me of a certain Riaz spell against Australia. Also in a losing cause.

Our worthless batting coach should at least tell Mohammad Amir that you can't cut or play toward third-man every ball you face while batting. You can't do that to full balls. He needs to improve his batting as he has potential for that.

They will figure him out soon and it will be a pretty dismal tour for Amir.
