Despite losing both his arms, Amir is one of the finest bowlers and batsman of his locality. He has a unique style of holding the bat between his neck and shoulder and bowls by holding the ball in his toes. Amir, who has so far played cricket in Jammu, Delhi and Lucknow wishes to join the International Para-Cricket team of India.
