Well he said that his real age is not 39 but he is 5 years older and he didn't say nice things about Javid Maindad Lol.. I Love Afridi because he speaks his mind.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

So what is Shahid Afridi's age finally?

Apparently he's 44 or 42. He said he was born in 1975, but also said he was 19 when he debuted in 1996.[DOUBLEPOST=1556910994][/DOUBLEPOST]

Autobiography, and he seems to be speaking frankly about several people and incidents through all of his career

I once remember him talking about Yuvraj Singh, Mohammed Kaif and Zaheer Khan during 2016 WT20 I guess, like how they used to spend time with each other whenever they had a match or something. It was fun to listen to it !!!!!

Could be the Next Prime minister of Pakistan haha.
He might do well being in charge of pakistan cricket team because he is honest guy and isn't afraid of anything.

More bombshells from his autobiography. Apparently Afridi and Abdul Razzaq were suspicious of Salman Butt a few months before the England tour in 2010 and Afridi complained to the team management, but they didn't act.

For once, I am massively interested in reading his autobiography. Arguably, the biggest cricketer we have had post-92 WC team. Dealt with a lot, defined a new generation for Pakistan.

Just hope he doesn't keep praising himself in his book.

Edit: even if you think about it - playing international cricket at 40-45 yr old is nothing short of exemplary. Shows the mans fitness. I feel players in the last decade where all older than their official birthdates (e.g. Hafeez etc.)

Epic .

Wahab, Aamir, Asif in for Junaid, Faheem, Abid.
Thoughts? @hammadahmed88 @Ahmad94 @Aoun13 @Na Maloom Afraad @Rehan_24 @Noctis.

Inzamam seems to be selecting players on media pressure. Why select Wahab when he hasn't played since 2017?
To me its a big blunder, and it will effect the the dressing room environment.

Apparently he's selected as a death bowler who can reverse it. God help us.

His one point is right, that inexperience did effect us in this series but what he said about the pitches is just based on this series and I am sure as the WC will progress, we will see pitches similar to CT2017.
If Wahab was in contention then he should have been given a chance in Australia series and in this series as well, otherwise its just a foolish selection.

Yeah Mohammad Hasnain took a beating in the England series, Feel sorry for the youngster.
Not sure why Wahab Riaz is in the World Cup squad, The last I remember when he got his ass smashed by India.
