Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Faruque Ahmed said the board can’t take responsibility for the alleged non-payment of Pakistan legend Shahid Afridi.
"In 2025 Pakistan was playing the cricket style of the 1980s and 1990s while other teams had progressed well to adopt an aggressive and modern style," Shahid Afridi told AFP.
Former Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal said that he has retired and no longer wants to play for the national team during a conversation with Pakistan cricket legend Shahid Afridi.
Posting on X, Afridi stressed on the fact that Pakistan had repeatedly toured India despite strained relations between the two nations, particularly since the 2008 Mumbai attacks.
ICC T20 World Cup ambassador Shahid Afridi in an exclusive column in ICC said that Afghanistan can win the World Cup and it shouldn't come as a surprise if Rashid Khan's side manage to go all the way.
Afridi said that Babar missed out on a chance to do the honourable thing when the selectors approached him to return as the white-ball captain ahead of the T20 World Cup.
“He knows many things and so do I, but we cannot talk openly. I will speak openly after the World Cup, our people themselves have spoiled this unit.”
Pakistan legend Shahid Afridi is excited that the American public will witness cricket’s equivalent of the Super Bowl in New York on Sunday when Pakistan take on archrivals India in a blockbuster T20 World Cup encounter.
The 2009 T20 World Cup champions have included five quality fast bowlers in their 15-player squad for the ninth edition of the tournament, with left-armer Shaheen Afridi to spearhead a pace attack alongside Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Abbas Afridi and Mohammad Amir.
Lancashire Lightning won their first T20 title with a 13-run win over Northants in the final at Edgbaston.
Although the first ODI series loss to Bangladesh exposes the frailties in Team India, the strong voices of dissent have been louder than the form of cricketers.
Pakistan T20I captain Shahid Afridi is "not happy" in the manner the Indian ODI skipper MS Dhoni was being targeted after the series loss to Bangladesh.
After starting off as a batsman while playing with the tennis ball in his locality, Mustafizur Rahman took on board the advice to start bowling fast.
A vital cog in Bangladesh’s line-up, Shakib Al Hasan has been a consistent performer for his country, especially in the longest format of cricket.
Pakistan lead Bangladesh by 205 runs with five wickets remaining in the 1st innings on the back of Hafeez’s maiden double ton and fifties from Misbah, Asad and Sarfraz at Khulna stadium.
Let’s revisit the best seven ODI matches at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium when Bangladesh cricket and the country itself saluted the sweet taste of success.
In the lone T20 match between Bangladesh and Pakistan at Mirpur on April 24, 2015, Shakib Al Hasan showed everyone why he is recognized as the top allrounder in world cricket today.
Bangladesh thrash Pakistan by seven wickets in the lone T20 match at Mirpur Stadium, riding on fifties from Shakib Al Hasan and Sabbir Rahman.
Mercurial, brilliant, aggressive, dominant, vulnerable, frustrating and unfortunately for Pakistan an underachiever, it is safe to say cricket never has and never will witness another Shahid Afridi.
