The performance of the Pakistan team in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 was very poor and they could not make it to the Super 8. Let us tell you, in this important tournament, Pakistan was first defeated by America in the Super Over and then the team had to face defeat against India as well.

Even though the team won against Canada, Pakistan was completely out of the Super 8 after the match between America and Ireland was cancelled. Many fans and former players have given their reactions on social media regarding the performance of the Pakistan team. Everyone is very disappointed with the performance of their team. However, experienced fast bowler Shaheen Afridi appealed to all the fans that instead of criticizing them in this difficult time, everyone should support the team.

In an interview with YouTube channel Cricwick, Shaheen Shah Afridi said, ‘Everyone supports you in good times but I want to tell the fans that at this time our team is going through a bad situation and we are not a street cricket team. This is your Pakistan team too. If you cannot support us at this time then you are also like the media.’

I have always been a bowler who has bowled at 136-140 kmph: Shaheen Afridi

Shaheen Afridi further said, ‘I have always been a bowler who has bowled at a speed of 136-140 kmph. I started like this and I am still bowling like that. When a bowler takes a wicket, everyone speaks well of him and when this does not happen, people start speaking bad things.’

Talking about Shaheen Shah Afridi, he also did not leave his mark in this tournament. There were many players in the team who performed disappointingly in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. In the match played against Canada, Mohammad Rizwan scored a match-winning half-century for his team. The performance of the team captain Babar Azam was also very poor this season.
