Shahid Afridi, the former captain of the Pakistan cricket team, has said that ‘I want to enter politics and do something in Pakistan, but my elders forbid me to enter politics’.
According to sources, while talking to the media, Shahid Afridi said that he wants to enter politics and do something for the country, but his elders forbid him to enter politics. ‘
He said that ‘I tell my elders that if people like us do not come into politics, how will there be a change.’
Shahid Afridi also talked regarding the removal of his son-in-law and fast bowler Shaheen Afridi from the captaincy, he said, “I have always tried to keep Shaheen away from the captaincy, many former cricketers and my own end with respect to captaincy.” Didn’t look good.’
He said that Shaheen Afridi was also forbidden to take the captaincy of Lahore Qalandars, but he did not listen to me and accepted the captaincy of Lahore Qalandars.
The former captain said that ‘I want Shaheen to focus on his cricket, I have been saying for the last 3-4 years that Mohammad Rizwan should be made the captain.’
It should be noted that on March 31, PCB had announced Babar Azam as the captain once more in place of Shaheen Afridi.
After the poor performance of the national team in the World Cup, Babar Azam resigned from the leadership of all three formats on November 15, following which Shaheen Afridi was appointed as the T20 captain and Shan Masood as the Test team captain.
The national team led by Shaheen participated in only one series and in that series in New Zealand the national team suffered a worst defeat of 1-4.
At the same time, echoes of Shaheen’s removal from the leadership began and now once once more the leadership has been handed over to Babar Azam.
