T20 World Cup is starting from 2 June Shaheen Shah Afridi (Image Credit- Twitter X) Recently, some media reports have claimed that Pakistan cricket team’s fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi has turned down the offer of vice-captaincy of the team before the upcoming T20 World Cup. So after Afridi turned down the captaincy of the national team, reports of soured relations between Shaheen and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have also started gaining momentum. If ESPN Cricinfo reports are to be believed, PCB wanted to make Shaheen an assistant to Babar Azam in the upcoming T20 World Cup, but now the 24-year-old bowler has directly refused to take this role in the Pakistani team. It is worth noting that recently Shaheen Afridi was removed from the captaincy of the T20 team of the Pakistan cricket team and Bazam Azam was given the captaincy of all three formats. However, after this incident, once again an attempt was made by the PCB to bring Shaheen into the team’s leadership group, but now the cricketer has refused to take this role. So after Shaheen rejected the offer of vice-captaincy, PCB can appoint Shadab Khan or Mohammad Rizwan as the vice-captain of the Pakistani team in the upcoming T20 World Cup. On the other hand, if we give you information about the upcoming T20 World Cup, then this time this multinational tournament is going to start from June 2 under the joint hosting of West Indies and USA. On the other hand, Pakistan will start its title campaign with a match against USA on June 6. This match between the two teams will be played at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas. Pakistan Cricket Team for Upcoming T20 World Cup: Babar Azam (captain), Abrar Ahmed, Azam Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Haris Rauf, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Rizwan (wicketkeeper), Naseem Shah, Saim Ayub, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Usman Khan.
