KARACHI: Former captain of Pakistan cricket team Wasim Akram has criticized PCB Chairman Ijaz Butt’s decision to remove Shahid Afridi from captaincy on Saturday.
Wasim Akram, while addressing the media, said that Shahid Afridi has proved his mettle in recent World Cup and One Day matches. After witnessing better performance from Afridi, PCB’s decision to change captain is inappropriate.
He also said that Misbah-ul-Haq has no future as a captain due to his age and he will not be able to continue playing as a captain for a longer period of time.
When Wasim Akram was asked about the clashes between coach Waqar Younus and Shahid Afridi, he said that such disagreements between the two is nothing unusual. The coach wants to exercise complete authority and when it does not happen, such conflicts are likely to arise.
He said that frequent changes in the team and captaincy have worst effects on the team’s performance. He blamed Ijaz Butt for the atrocity of the situation.
