Recently, former Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir has hit the headlines as the star cricketer might get his British passport anytime this year, and with this development, there is news that the paceman might be seen in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. However, reacting to the news, Amir has said there is still a year left and he will take one step at a time Owais Shah played international cricket for England from 2001-09. In T20 Internationals (T20Is), he played 17 matches for England, in which he scored 347 runs in 15 innings at a strike rate of 122.18. Shah, the Karachi-born England player, got a chance to play in IPL in 2010 when Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) signed him up.
In his debut IPL season, Owais got five games and scored only 115 runs at an underwhelming strike rate of 121.05. Following his dismal batting display in 2010, KKR released Owais but the new franchise Kochi Tuskers Kerala (KTK) showed faith in the England batter for the 2011 IPL edition.However, he remained an underperformer in Kochi as well, scoring only 26 runs in two innings of three matches. In 2012, he joined Rajasthan Royals (RR), and this time, he put up a decent show with his bat, notching up 340 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of 132.81. Owais featured in the cash-rich league for the last time in 2013. Donning RR’s jersey again, he scored only 25 runs in two games at a strike rate of 108.69
