KARACHI – Former cricketer Shahid Khan Afridi said on Friday that he disagrees with the idea of not sending team to India for the World Cup.
Speaking to media, Afridi said there exists a high-pressure in every match between India and Pakistan.
The team is competitive and can beat its opponents in no time, he added.
“Three PCB chairpersons have been changed in the past eight months. The new PCB chairman thinks his predecessor did not do a good job,” Afridi said.
He urged the players to maintain good fitness levels in time for the World Cup.
When asked about players facing pressure in the World Cup in India, he said that it is fun to play in pressure situations in India.
He added that during his playing days, the Indian crowd did not cheer for them when they performed well and there used to pin drop silence they used to hit boundaries or took wickets of Indian players.
Afridi suggested players to take care of their fitness and said that they have ability to beat any team in the world.
He asked team management to work on their bench strength so that team can play well even without Babar Azam and Shaheen Shah Afridi.
