Pesar Shaheen Shah Afridi of Pakistan cricket team has addressed his dismissal as the T20I captain after the side in just one series.
The left -handed pace was made the captain of the T20 Eye side after finishing the World Cup 2023 on a disappointing note under the captaincy of Babar Azam.
Although Shaheen Afridi was removed from his post in less than six months, captained in a T20I series, a five -match series against New Zealand in 2024.
Pacer of the Pakistan cricket team has now opened to remove the captaincy after only one series.
During a recent chat with a local media outlet, Shaheen Afridi was asked if being dismissed as captain.
“I don’t have the heart these days,” he responded with a light-hearted pinch.
However, the left -handed pacer expressed pride in leading the Pakistan cricket team.
“I am glad I was the captain of Pakistan. It was a proud moment,” he said.
Shaheen Afridi said: “You feel proud that you have done something for Pakistan. I am always happy when someone wins the match for Pakistan.
It is worth noting here that Afridi was replaced by Babar Azam just before the T20 World Cup 2024.
The Pakistan cricket team was ruled out of the tournament after losing two of their three group-phase games.
Under the captaincy of Babur Azam, the national side lost its first game to the USA, followed by a crushed defeat in India’s hands.
