Ahmed Shezad recently favourited this tweet on twitter, its against Azhar Ali. It is clear that Shehzad is bitter about it; instead of congratulating Azhar Ali or showing support, he favourites
such tweets. Shame on him. Not a fan of him at all anymore.

This was the tweet:

Look at the tweet and click on favourites below it... Or go to Shehzad's favourite section directly. I can't seem to hyperlink it for now as I'm on my phone.
 
These guys will never learn. The Pakistan team will always have too many self centred nincompoops.
 
Thats really shameful.

This kind of attitude should not be tolerated , how can we expect him to not create troubles for azhar ali?
 
nothing wrong with it. shezad is keen to get back into the side and eventually captain it. healthy competition is always good

no thanks. He can stay outside of the team since his attitude means he couldnt lead a scout group up a hill let alone our cricket team!
 
Why don't your players outsource these accounts to social media managers and agencies? That's how most of the players in the other teams do it.

Shehzad especially is such a noob on the platform for a celebrity.

This is not competition , this is disregarding another player who plays for the same team.
 
Think he doesn't understand English that well

That's true but he's been around cricket for years..... The terms "better stats" should be obvious to him by now surely?
 
Between Azhar Ali and Ahmed Shehzad, it looks to be a war of mediocrity.
 
Just hope they do drop him, keep him for the test matches but don't let him play ODI/T20 where most of the action is

Drop him all together. Or player power, politicking, oaths will all continue. Shehzaad is not a big enough player to tolerate this crap.

There's one thing been keen to get back into the side and to one day captain it.

It's another to like public posts that attack another teammate (let alone the new Captain)
 
So PCB have got their next troublemaker right there.

Keep him away from the team for 5-6 months and send a clear cut message and nip this in the bud.
 
The problem is that some youngsters in our team think their names on the back of their shirts are bigger then Pakistan's moon and star, on the front of the shirts. But in reality, if youngsters play for the flags on their shirts, then fans will remember their names on the back of the shirts. It's really as simple as that.

I may be critical of Waqar's fitness regime; but he will bring in discipline and rightly so.

have u seen him speak english.. he is indeed fluent with his english which makes me think he understands proper normal english..no excuses, he is simply has a rubbish attitude that could even end his career ... he thinks himself better than the game...need to be booted out.. Im sure u would even see him shouting or showing ill mannerism against azhar ali on the field if he plays along with him...u heard this first here.,. watch out bro.
 
I think all our players and staff need to attend some PR and media training. They seem to lack the common sense to keep certain feelings private in certain settings.

I have seen high school athletes here more savvy in answering media questions about other players and rivals than a lot of our even 'senior' players.

And ramiz raja and saj.

I've said for a while now from bis Twitter it's obvious he thinks he's doing a great job, he is the best, he has no flaws and no one can criticise him.

No issue with arrogance if there is hunger but he has none. Wants to score 30s and pretend to be a womaniser who evidently struggles with that too.

Don't wanna see him play for us again
 
No other word to describe this behaviour then 'stupid'

Un-favourite all the tweets, unfollow the 'fan accounts' and tweet in proper English. How hard is that?
 
The only bit true from that tweet is that he is young. Apart from that he is neither talented nor aggressive, just likes to think that he is.

You never know.
By "stats"', he may have thought it means "stadiums"?

I pretty much doubt that he is any better in English than Umer Akmal.
 
Perhaps Afridi has to take some portion of the blame.

Afridi blindly supported this guy because they seem to have become close friends.

And the thought of Afridi, the only superstar, being on his side, went to his head.

Shehzad seems like as if he thinks he is above any rules and dicipline protocols as no one could touch him?

Very poor and weak mindset, that cannot digest a little bit of fame.
 
I understand why Waqar gets criticism but frankly, at this point, I'm inclined to say turn the team over to him, these idiots can't get any worse. He obviously doesn't like Shehzad's attitude, and his criticism of Akmal's discipline is spot on.

We need a young, fit, hard working team. One or two seniors who fit that bill, fine. But drop the bad attitudes and deadweight, let Waqar install tough fitness regime and go from there. I'd rather take an intelligent captain who isn't looking to cause drama than drama queen with years and years unrealized 'potential.'

I hope he does as he's still a good test batsman. He needs to be dropped from the team if he's causing problems for the team management, then once his big head has deflated back to normal size maybe he can be considered for future matches.
 
I think it's more to do with his ego being stroked, rather than anything against Azhar.

He has been dropped atleast twice before because of his attitude.
 
Cpt. Rishwat said:
Fair enough. In that case he needs to be dropped again. 6 months out of the team might make him more appreciative of how lucky he is to wear the shirt.

what annoys me is that he overestimates his worth when the cold hard numbers say otherwise

Insanity is repeating the same mistake over and over again and expecting a different result.

Shehzad needs to be discarded for good, its not like he is setting the world on fire with his performances.
 
waqar dropped him once before so i think its going to happen again!! what an idiot!
 
Anyone else thinks he is probably unaware of the fact that others can see his favorite tweets and favorites anything. :)
 
He sure has a big ego but issue is bigger here. You don't attack your team mate and new captain this way.
 
Calling to be dropped from the side. Shahzad has major problems, and his presence on social media seems to be right up there with the biggest.

He was already in the side. Didn't u see him play in CWC. With his performances he is good enuf to be booted out.

That is pretty naive. Many ppl here still trying their best to hide this fellas attitude issues, and this is one kinda comment. If he can play like kohli then u can be bothered that you will lose such a talent but he is not half of what kohli is. Move on throw the bad apples and build professionalism or else let them build it.
 
All of PCB and SK's talk will be proved to be just that - hot air - unless they seriously address Shehzad's attitude issues. Bottom line.

How many times u throw him out and y do u take him again if he is still the same and has never learnt from his past experience. I'm sure his attitude issues would kill his cricketing career. I feel pity on him, he has age on his side but seriously poor with his attitude. Some one here pp can retweet him the weblink of this page and make him realise that this is what the ppl here think about him his attitude and how far has he been become a laughing stock.
 
Not what you'd expect really.

Maybe he's disappointed and wanted to be captain but the way to do it is to perform on the field not on twitter.

I feel he's treading on thin ice these days.

The answer is you don't take him back unless he shows a better attitude. He's young, it's possible one day he might grow up. Saying he should never be picked again is just as stupid attitude. Fans might say this sort of stuff but selectors won't.

all the more reason to drop him!! if he cant even use twitter properly..well what hope does he have!!
 
I think this is garbage attitude, As a professional one must stay grounded and down to earth. You can't win or learn anything when you yourself consider yourself the boss. Regardless of potential it is only hardwork that is going to get you ahead.
 
Not helping matters. He could try the 'I have fat fingers and hence pressed the wrong option while tryig to dismiss the tweet" defense

Or may be , his media manager or some admin favoured the tweet. He might not know about this at all. We jump to conclusions too soon.

It amazes me.
You had players like Brian Lara, Rahul Dravid, Tendulkar, and currently Hashim Amla, AB D etc where players like Shehzad is not qualified to polish their shoes, yet these big names hardly have any attitude problems.

For some reason, some people just can't digest a little fame, a small milestone or achievement in their lives. I think it's primarily the ability of being humble that makes one from good to great and great to a legend.

Even Kohli has attitude issues but that's an altogether different ball game. He performs with the bat, enjoys great work ethics and keeps a sharp focus on growing his game. But again, even folks a like Rohit Sharma, Pujara, Raina, Dhoni etc are better players than Shehzad but they hardly have any such attitude issues like some of our players do.
 
Why does this guy do stuff like this? I like him but he really does need to grow up now. He ain't a teenager anymore.

You got me wrong. I am not defending him at all. I just thought he doesn't know something about this favorite stuff, hence he keeps favoriting some 12 year old girls tweets.

"Shehzad to retain his place despite behavioral issues"

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will not listen to head coach Waqar Younis’ recommendation of dropping Ahmed Shehzad from the side as a punishment for his poor behaviour and egotistic approach.

“Waqar has suggested that both Shehzad and Umar should be dropped based on his observation from the World Cup but there is no reason to drop Shehzad,” a senior PCB official told The Express Tribune. “Umar has not performed well and his axing is fair because he is not willing to learn from his past mistakes and improve his game. But Shehzad cannot be dropped just because someone is finding it hard to deal with him. He played well throughout 2014 and was one of the most consistent of performers.”

In 2014, Shehzad was Pakistan’s highest run-scorer for Pakistan in one-dayers with 629 runs from 16 matches as he scored two centuries and four fifties, while he also topped for Pakistan in T20Is scoring 181 runs in six outings.

The 23-year-old has a century in the T20 format as well and is the only Pakistani to have reached the three-figure mark in all formats of the game.

“Shehzad will be told to improve his behaviour and control his ego because it is going against him,” added the official. “He would have been the leading contender for the ODI and T20 captaincy but it’s his attitude which has put him behind Azhar and Sarfraz.”

And THIS is why I only believe it when I see it. PCB is just a pathetic organization. They will continue to run Pakistan cricket into the ground.

On the positive side - they have acknowledged WY has complained about Shehzad's attitude. IMO - it would be unfair to drop him right now as he has performed well in the recent past. However, if he causes trouble in the dressing room - then PCB should consider dropping him for a while. So far, only WY has complained about Shehzad...
