Pakistan pacer Shaheen Afridi has found himself in some trouble after Gary Kirsten alleged that he misbehaved with him and assistant coach Azhar Mahmood during the T20 World Cup in his report to the PCB.

This report was unveiled by Geo News which stated that there was no unity in the Pakistan team and Shaheen Afridi was involved in inappropriate behaviour with the coaching staff. This comes after Pakistan’s shameful exit in the group stage of the T20 World Cup 2024 after defeats to India and the USA.

Amid all the reports, the left-arm seamer posted a video of him bowling in the nets with the caption, “Rise Above.”

Shaheen had a decent T20 World Cup being the joint second-highest wicket-taker of Pakistan with five wickets to his name from four innings at an average of 21 and an economy of 6.56. His best performance of the tournament came against Ireland where he picked 2/11 in four overs.

Shaheen was handed the Pakistan captaincy in T20Is after Pakistan’s poor 2023 ICC World Cup. However, after Pakistan lost to New Zealand 1-4 in a five- T20I series, PCB decided to remove Shaheen as captain and handed the leadership back to Babar Azam, much to the chagrin of Shaheen Afridi.
