Former Pakistan fast bowler Mohammad Aamir has once again expressed his desire to play his IPL. Aamir says that if he gets a chance, he will give priority to the Indian Premier League (IPL) instead of Pakistan Super League (PSL). His rhetoric has become a topic of discussion in the cricket world.
First choice told IPL

Shocking response to PSL
When Aamir was asked that if the IPL and PSL are at the same time, then they would choose, then they said clearly,
“It depends on which league I am first selected. If the IPL is auctioned first and I am selected, I will not play in the PSL. And if the first PSL draft is done and I am chosen, then I can’t move away.”
Aamir also added that the next time the IPL and PSL conflict the dates are less likely as the ICC Champions Trophy has focused on tournaments.
