According to ESPNcricinfo, Wasim Akram said on Fox Cricket: “New Zealand have five T20I matches to play right after the Test series against Australia, and Shaheen is the captain.

Do you want to become a great cricketer or a millionaire?
We can talk about what happened in this Test in Sydney 20 years ago, but no one knows what happened in the T20 match last night. This is the difference between Test and T-20 cricket. These people have to understand and learn whether you want to become great in sports or become a millionaire. You can be both but with a little more understanding.”
While Waqar Younis said: “This is a big shock for me, because I was expecting Shaheen to be a part of the SCG Test match, because he bowled well in the last match. He was starting to look like the old Shaheen Afridi and swinging the ball and the pace was getting better.”
