    Sassur jee naraz; Shahid Afridi not happy with Shaheen Afridi’s performance against India

    Pakistan cricket team’s former captain Shahid Afridi expressed disappointment at son-in-law Shaheen Afridi’s recent performance against India in a crucial match of Super 4 stage in Asia Cup 2023.

    Pakistan was defeated by a massive margin of 228 runs. Chasing the target of 357 runs, Pakistani team collapsed on 128 runs in 32 overs.

    Shahid Afridi said, “Shaheen would have to be consistent on his line and length. If you are not getting wickets in early two overs, you don’t have to be angry.”

    The senior Afraid was of the view that Shaheen should bowl on the same length as Naseem Shah. “The pitch was good for bowling but our bowling was not good,” the former captain said.

    He observed that some people were asking on social media why Pakistan had decided to bowl first. “If we ball like Naseem Shah in initial overs, the situation could have been different. Shaheen’s line and length were not good, he gets frustrated if he doesn’t get wickets in early overs because he is known as a wicket taker in the first over.”

  • Former PCB medical chief criticises medical panel for putting Shaheen Afridi’s career at risk

    Former PCB medical chief criticises medical panel for putting Shaheen Afridi’s career at risk

    At the MCG, England defeated Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2022 final match, however Pakistan put up a good fight despite scoring a low score. They strongly desired that their top pacer Shaheen Afridi bowl his entire allotment, but this did not happen and it became a subject of debate after the final.

    Afridi was spotted in severe pain when he injured his knee while attempting a running catch to knock Harry Brook.

    Shaheen returned to bowl after the impact, but he was only able to produce one delivery, which was far from his best effort.

    The fast bowler entered the World Cup after undergoing an expedited recovery from a knee ligament injury he sustained in July. Experts in medicine say that if he experiences another fright during the final, his career, at the age of only 22, may be in jeopardy.

    “If the injury doesn’t result in more injuries, it would take Shaheen three to four months to recover,” former Pakistan Cricket Board chief medical officer Dr Sohail Salim told Dawn.

    “If the PCB’s medical board chooses to treat it through surgery, Shaheen will be out for six, seven months.”

    In any case, Shaheen’s expected absence from two major upcoming home Test series versus England and New Zealand, according to Sohail, raises concerns about the effectiveness of the PCB’s existing medical team.

    “An inquiry should be held to determine if the PCB medical panel went wrong in their approach to treat Shaheen’s injury,” said Sohail.

    Shaheen may become available again soon, however, Sarfraz Nawaz, a former fast bowler for Pakistan, regretted the PCB’s selection of the pacer for the World Cup team despite the fact that he had not had any match practise beforehand.

    “You have put him in directly in the high-profile World Cup without him playing any match since July,” Sarfraz told Dawn.

    “His fitness could have been better judged if he played a game before the World Cup and he shouldn’t have been selected without proving it.”

    Sarfraz believed the tri-series in New Zealand ahead of the T20 showpiece was a good chance to test Shaheen.
