Mohammad Amir will be eligible to play in IPL 2026 with his British passport. On that note, here we take a look at the list of three teams that could realistically target Mohammad Amir for IPL 2026.
1) Sunrisers Hyderabad
It will be interesting to see who is the fourth foreigner in the playing XI for SRH. Also, the team needs a good left-arm pacer. Now, they have Jaydev Unadkat, who was actually decent last season.
Nevertheless, going forward, SRH could eye someone like Amir. He could form a potent new-ball partnership with Mohammed Shami.
2) Lucknow Super Giants could target Mohammad Amir for IPL 2026
LSG is one of the teams that could realistically target Mohammad Amir for IPL. Shamar Joseph is the lead overseas pacer in the side.
Almost every other team has a more established foreign pacer. LSG will want to correct this auction mistake. They could target Amir as a choice with the new ball.
3) Kolkata Knight Riders
It is not sure if the inexperienced Spencer Johnson or the injury-prone Anrich Nortje can add value as the lead overseas pacer.
KKR will want someone who can impact like Mitchell Starc. Amir can be an option for KKR in this regard for IPL 2026.
