Mohammad Amir, the returning fast bowler of Pakistan cricket team, dismissed dangerous Irish batter George Dockrell with a valiant caught and bowled effort in the third T20 which also happens to be a must win contest for the visitors.

The ongoing T20 series between Pakistan and Ireland has been absolutely dramatic so far, with the Irish men causing a massive upset in the first game. But Pakistan fought back a couple of days later to seek sweet revenge.

And now to decide the ultimate super force, the two sides clashed in the third and final T20I of the bilateral series earlier today in Dublin.

After an early wicket batting first, Irish batters Andrew Balbirnie and skipper Lorcan Tucker piled up an 85-run partnership to float things up.

However, Imad Wasim showed the exit door to the captain and subsequently Mohammad Amir continued the momentum with an important dismissal of George Dockrell.

Amir, who recently revoked his international retirement, set out to redeem himself after bottling 44 runs in the previous game. 

The pacer deceived Dockrell with change of pace as the batter was stunned and undone with the slower pitched delivery. He scooped inside the 30-yard circle, and Amir sprinted through his follow-through to claim a clean catch himself.

That marked the fifth wicket for Ireland who witnessed an unwarranted collapse thereafter to finish with a 178 runs first inning total.

However, Ireland are completely out of the contest just yet. The pitch has something for the bowlers, and with the right execution of plans, Ireland can find a way back to claim the series and register a massive upset right before the T20 World Cup.
