‘PCB should take action against him’ Former Pakistani captain gave a big statement about Shaheen Afridi
Pakistan was badly eliminated in the T20 World Cup 2024. Shaheen Afridi (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Pakistan cricket team captain Salman Butt is not happy with the way the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has managed fast bowler Shaheen Afridi. According to some media reports, Shaheen had a heated argument with batting coach Mohammad Yusuf during the Pakistan cricket team’s tour of England in the UK ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024. If we tell you about this issue, then at that time Shaheen Afridi was throwing a lot of no balls during the bowling practice session. But when Yusuf reprimanded Shaheen for not throwing no balls, he told him to mind his own business. On the other hand, now former captain Salman Butt has given a big statement on this matter. Salman Butt gave a big statement Let us tell you that Salman Butt, on this issue, quoted Cricket Pakistan on a local sports channel as saying- If the Pakistan Cricket Management feels that Shaheen is not following the set plans, and is doing so deliberately, then the PCB should take action against him. If he is not disciplined, then he should be removed, and some other player should get a place in the team. Butt further said- If you (PCB) gave him a full chance despite all these issues and are now complaining, then I think anyone can do this. What is the point of appointing big names with such high salaries. The job of the management is not to complain but to take action. On the other hand, let us tell you that before the T20 World Cup, Shaheen Afridi was leading the Pakistan cricket team in T20 cricket, but before the T20 World Cup, he was removed from the captaincy in a very dramatic manner.

Who will be India’s next T20I captain, will Hardik’s experience outweigh Suryakumar? Know what the statistics say
Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain of Team India during T20 World Cup 2024 Hardik Pandya And SKY (Image Credit- Twitter X) There is an ongoing discussion about who will be the next T20 captain of the Indian team after Rohit Sharma’s retirement from T20I. Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain of Team India during the T20 World Cup 2024 and hence it was believed that he would lead the team after Rohit. But now reports have surfaced that SuryaKumar Yadav is the first choice of new head coach Gautam Gambhir as the T20 captain. Let us tell you that Hardik Pandya’s performance as captain in IPL 2024 was not good. However, he did tremendous captaincy for Gujarat Titans in two seasons. He made GT the champion in their very first edition and took them to the finals in the second season. After two good seasons with GT, he joined Mumbai Indians this year and the franchise made him the captain. But under Hardik’s captaincy, MI could win only 4 out of 14 matches. He was criticized a lot then and was also trolled a lot during the tournament. However, the all-rounder silenced everyone with his performance in the T20 World Cup. In IPL 2024, Hardik took 11 wickets along with scoring 216 runs in 13 matches, but in the T20 World Cup, apart from scoring 144 runs in 6 innings, he also took 11 wickets in 8 matches. According to reports, Hardik Pandya’s injuries in the past had an impact on the team combination. For this reason, Gautam Gambhir is in favor of making a player the captain who remains in the team regularly. Time will tell who will become the next captain between Hardik and Suryakumar Yadav, but let’s take a look at the captaincy record of both of them in T20 Internationals. Suriya looks better when compared to T20I captaincy, see stats Hardik Pandya’s captaincy record in T20I Matches- 16Wins- 10Defeat- 5Tie – 1Win percentage- 65.62 Hardik’s captaincy record in IPL Matches- 45Wins- 26Defeat- 19Win percentage- 57.77 Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy record in T20I Match- 7Wins- 5Necklace- 2Win percentage- 71.42 Now the question arises whether Hardik will be able to win back India’s T20 captaincy by defeating Suryakumar on the basis of his experience? Team India is to be announced for the series against Sri Lanka in a few days, then it will be known who will be the next captain?
When Mohammad Shami commented on nepotism in the selection of Pakistan team, this former captain got angry
Shami made this comment on Shubhankar Mishra’s YouTube channel. Mohammed Shami and Inzamam-Ul-Haq (Image Credit- Twitter Indian cricket team’s experienced fast bowler Mohammed Shami recently made a big statement regarding the selection of the Pakistan cricket team. In this statement, Shami raised questions on former Pakistani player and selector Inzamam-ul-Haq. Shami said that he was biased in the selection of his nephew Imam-ul-Haq in the team. Shami made this statement while speaking in a podcast of Shubhankar Mishra, “I don’t understand why people feel the need to target others (India). Improve your selection, and send a good team. They can do this, because the talent is present in them. But they should do one thing, if you want to run a team based on personal relationships, then make it a family team.” On the other hand, now this statement of Shami has not been liked by former Pakistan cricket team opener and captain Salman Butt, and he has given a big reaction. Butt says that Imam’s selection has been done on the basis of his performance, not because his uncle was a selector. Salman Butt gave a big statement Let us tell you that after this reaction of Mohammad Shami, Salman Butt said through a video uploaded on his YouTube channel – Pakistan should not select teams on the basis of relationships and friendship. Mohammad Shami’s comment was made targeting Inzamam-ul-Haq. But I think the statement about him selecting the team on the basis of personal relations is wrong. Butt further said – This is a wrong statement, because if you look at Imam’s records, he came into the Pakistan team on the basis of his performance, not because of any relationship. He was dropped from the team after his performance flopped. Shami’s comment on Inzamam was against decorum, and he should not say such things.
