In a shocking incident that came to light after a video went viral, star Pakistan cricketer Mohammad Amir was caught hurling abuse at fans during the Pakistan Super League (PSL) match between Quetta Gladiators and Lahore Qalandars on March 10. Amir lost his cool after a few fans directed 'fixer, fixer' chants at him while he was walking out on the ground. Amir was visibly angered by the chants and he stopped to address the fans.
Mohammad Amir, who looked absolutely furious, hurled abuse at the fans and said "Ghar se yehi seekh ke aate ho" (Is this what you learn at your home?) before he was dragged away by a teammate.

Mohammad Amir's career
