Aamer suffers washout in comeback

Pakistani fast bowler Mohammad Aamer on Wednesday shrugged off the disappointment of his comeback match being washed out following a five-year ban for spot-fixing.

The 22-year-old was due to make his return to competitive domestic cricket this week but a waterlogged pitch -- the after-effects of torrential downpours last week -- meant all three days of his game for Omar Associates were abandoned.

Aamer, cleared to return early from his ban for bowling no-balls to order in the Lord's Test against England in 2010, said it was "God's will" the match was rained off.

"We have three to four more matches to play God willing and we are focusing on them," he told reporters.
