Shahid Afridi’s big statement about the cricket team came out

Former Test captain Shahid Khan Afridi has said that preparations should be made in full for the World Cup, it is not correct to consider the match once morest India as a competition and now no change should be made in the team combination.

While talking to the media, Shahid Khan Afridi, the great all-rounder of his era, said that there are very good and strong teams in the World Cup, it is not correct to consider the competition with India as a global one, now there is a change in the Pakistan team for the global event. There is no time, so there is no need to make any changes in the team combination, however, camps should be held for preparations.

He said that the World Cup is a test for many players, but the responsibility will be on the senior players, only one captain of the Pakistan team should be made so that the fight over this issue ends, there should not be a separate leader for each format. The concept of vice-captain is not correct, a senior player can be made an assistant to the captain on the field, along with this the tenure of the captain must be fixed.

Shahid Afridi said that poor fielding is an old problem in Pakistan cricket team, apart from fielding, bowling and batting also need attention. Pakistan should have won the Test series once morest Australia and the T20 series once morest New Zealand. In the competitions, the Pakistan cricket team did not look like a unit, experiments were conducted to test the players.

The former captain said that it is the player’s responsibility to take advantage of the opportunities they get, Azam Khan and other new players including Saeem Ayub have a lot of talent, they are the future of the national team, the young players on central contracts should get time. While proper planning should be done regarding feeding them, it is not right to feed any player regularly, even if players like Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan or Shaheen Afridi are given a chance to rest, their replacements will not work. Otherwise, the bench of the national team has to be strengthened so that good substitutes are available when needed.

In response to a question, he said that number three in the national team means an opener, players like Fakhar and Saeem should open, may Allah return Saeem’s form, he has a lot of talent.

Shahid Afridi said that former Test captain Hafeez has played a lot of cricket, he should be given time as a director of cricket.

Former Test captain Shah Afridi said that the plan of ex-chairman PCB was also to hold elections but he took another way.
