International career[edit]
Aamer has since been a regular for Oman in international tournaments, playing further list-A matches at the 2009 World Cup Qualifier and Twenty20 matches at the 2012 and 2015 World Twenty20 Qualifiers.[5] He made his Twenty20 International debut in Oman's fifth-place playoff at the 2015 World Twenty20 Qualifier, against Afghanistan.[6]
Aamer was included in to the Oman squad for 2016 ICC World Twenty20. In the first match against Ireland, he scored match winning 32 runs from 17 balls. This included 5 fours and a six, and Oman won the match by 2 wickets.[7][8][9]
