There has been a lot of turmoil in Pakistan cricket since the defeat in the T220 World Cup. Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi had talked about surgery, which has already started. However, former Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi is not happy with this. Afridi, who is currently playing in the World Champions League in England, has targeted PCB and Babar Azam. He also expressed displeasure over the removal of Wahab Riaz and Abdul Razzaq from the selection committee. He also raised questions about Babar's captaincy.

What did Shahid Afridi say about Babar?

Shahid Afridi is currently playing the World Champions League in England.

He gave an interview to a Pakistani reporter, during which he was questioned about his action. In response, Afridi raised questions on Babar Azam's captaincy. He said that many players have captained before, but no one got a chance like Babar. He has got opportunities in many tournaments, but he flopped. Now there is a need to bring in a new face and give him a chance.

Afridi also expressed his displeasure over the removal of Wahab Riaz and Abdul Razzaq from the PCB selection committee. According to Afridi, after the poor performance in the World Cup, the captain should have been the first to be 'fired', but the selectors were removed. He did not understand this, because only 2 people were removed from a team of 6-7 people.
Razzaq was included in the selection committee for both men's and women's teams a few weeks ago. But now he will not work for any team. Afridi said that whoever is selected should be given time.

PCB in Action

PCB has removed only Razzaq and Wahab Riaz for now, but can take many big decisions in the next few days. Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi has also held two important meetings, in which white-ball coach Gary Kirsten and red-ball coach Jason Gillespie were present. During this, there was a discussion about improving the team. Not only this, he also met more than two dozen former and current cricketers to bring about improvement in Pakistan cricket.
