Aamer Jamal's Warwickshire Stint Cut Short by Injuries

Aamer Jamal's Warwickshire Stint Cut Short by Injuries

Aamer Jamal's brief stint with Warwickshire has ended prematurely due to persistent fitness issues. The Pakistani pacer joined the English county in April but managed only three appearances across formats.

Jamal's debut against Nottinghamshire was promising, but he struggled for rhythm and pace in subsequent outings. A back injury further sidelined him, limiting his involvement in the County Championship.

In the Blast, Jamal played just one match, conceding 25 runs in a wicketless over and being dismissed for a first-ball duck. Warwickshire's director of cricket, Gavin Larsen, expressed disappointment that Jamal could not showcase his abilities.

Jamal's compatriot Hasan Ali has also faced injury setbacks at Warwickshire, missing recent Blast matches due to an elbow problem. The county has been plagued by seam-bowling injuries this season, with Craig Miles, Liam Norwell, and Chris Rushworth all spending time on the sidelines.

Despite their bowling woes, Warwickshire has performed well in the Blast, topping the North Group. However, they remain winless in Division One of the Championship.

To bolster their bowling options, Warwickshire has signed former England Under-19 seamer Ethan Bamber from Middlesex. Bamber was highly sought after, and his acquisition is a significant boost for the county.
