The Pakistan Cricket Broad (PCB) re-appointed Babar Azam as the new white-ball captain. The 29-year-old stepped down from captaincy after a horrible show in India during the ODI World Cup last year. 

Shaheen Afridi has been removed from captaincy after Pakistan lost a series 1-4 to New Zealand in January. With just two months nearly remaining before the T20 World Cup the change in captaincy for Pakistan has increased tension in the Pakistan squad. 

After Afridi took a leadership role in the shortest format Pakistan as well as his PSL team Lahore Qalandars has faced continuous defeat one after another.

The captaincy mess that is going around in Pakistan Cricket has created a rift in the team and Shaheen Afridi expressed his emotions and rage using a clip in an Instagram story.

 

Shaheen Afridi Cryptic Instagram Story

On Thursday, April 4, 2024, the pacer posted a 30-second clip of a lion on his Instagram story with the words:

“Never ever put me in a position where I have to show you how cruel and ruthless I can be. Don’t test my patience. Because I might be the kindest and sweetest person you’ve ever met, but once I reach my limit, you’ll see me do the things that no one thought I was capable of doing.”


Babar's captaincy tenure will resume with a five-match T20I home series against New Zealand followed by a contest against England in late May before they take off for the T20 World Cup.
