MANCHESTER (United Kingdom): Pakistan spearhead Mohammad Amir confronted the prospect of being got rid of from the assault sooner than finishing his spell in a key World Cup match in opposition to arch competitors India after receiving two reputable warnings for operating at the pitch in his first spell at Old Trafford.

The left-arm fast used to be officially warned by Australian umpire Bruce Oxenford within the 3rd and fifth overs of Sunday's match.
One extra such warning, from either Oxenford or fellow status umpire Marais Erasmus, would see Amir got rid of from the assault and not able to bowl once more on this match.
That could be an enormous blow to Pakistan, with the in-form Amir having taken career-best figures of Five-30 -- the most efficient of the tournament so far in a 41-run staff loss to reigning champions Australia at Taunton on Wednesday.
Bowlers will have to not run directly to the safe house close to the stumps after delivering the ball so as not to unfairly scuff up the surface and make batting more difficult when the bowling is from the other end.
Amir conceded just 8 runs in his opening 4 overs.
Pakistan are recently 9th within the 10-team desk and realistically want to beat India if they're to care for their hopes of a top-four finish from the round-robin staff stage that will see them into the semi-finals.
India have been with out opener Shikhar Dhawan, who suffered a thumb injury while compiling a hundred in opposition to Australia.
But the new first-wicket pair of Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul, promoted up the order in Dhawan's absence, got them off to a solid start.
India have been 53 with out loss after 10 overs in spite of being despatched into bat on a green-tinged pitch in overcast prerequisites.
More than one billion enthusiasts have been set to observe the match on tv, while there have been some 800,000 applications for tickets to observe the match at an Old Trafford flooring where the maximum capacity is 26,000.
