"Pakistan Cricket Is In ICU Because...": Shahid Afridi Makes Explosive Remark

Former captain Shahid Afridi has questioned the return of all-rounder Shadab Khan to the national T20 squad, saying Pakistan cricket is in ICU because of incorrect decisions. Out of favor since the last T20 World Cup, Shadab was recalled and also appointed vice captain to Salman Ali Agha in Pakistan's T20 squad for the away series against New Zealand. "On what basis has he been recalled. What are his performances in domestic cricket or otherwise that he had been picked again," Shahid said during a media interaction. The flamboyant all-rounder said unless decisions are taken on merit nothing will change in Pakistan cricket. "All the time we talk about preparations and when an event comes and we flop then we talk about surgery. Fact is Pakistan cricket is in ICU because of incorrect decisions." He noted that whenever a new Chairman takes charge he comes and changes everything.

Controversy Over Champions Trophy 2025 Ceremony Continues As PCB Take Massive Step

India played all of their matches - including the final - in Dubai after their government decided to not send the national side to Pakistan due to political tensions. As a result, several ex-cricketers as well as current players pointed out that it was a huge advantage for Rohit Sharma and Co as they were aware of their fixtures and they did not have to travel to other venues. However, Gavaskar completely rubbished such claims after India's win over New Zealand in the final and even namedropped the England cricket team in his explanation.
