I don't know why they are acting as if they would have performed better at the WC without him as the captain? They performed as they were expected to.

 

[Mean&Green]

I’m just still laughing over the that match against us in the World Cup they didn’t try in any match as they did to beat us they wanted to win against us so badly but their jija ji had other ideas

 

[Usman Chadda]

Feels strange coming from the guy who was the biggest bottler for Afghanistan in the WC.

 

[KyoOne]

That's horrible from the Afghan team. It was a wired last minute decision to appoint him as the captain, then senior players publicly criticising the change and then dropping the most exciting Afghani batsman ever M Shahzad over minor niggle. Something was fishy all along the way

 

[KingKhanXi]

Afghanistan lost opportunity to beat pakistan due to their infighting. Otherwise they were perfectly placed to beat them.

 

[topspin]

Time to order some popcorn from Amazon, perhaps I'll see if they got any Afghan flavours as well.

Looking forward to what is about to unfold. Lol these Afghans give us great entertainment

 

[Nikhil_cric]

As if they would have done any better had they chosen to perform.

 

[MenInG]

Afghanistan players need to calm down a bit - they've done a great job reaching where they are - now need that to sink in and move on forwards.

 

[Smudger]

I am afraid his tweets may endanger his existence

 

[Saj]

Afghanistan cricket is on a par with Pakistan cricket for comedy.

 

[sharmaji]

Whatever he may reveal, he will go down as the one who lost Afghanistan a world cup match against Pakistan.

 

[RehanG]

Afghanistan have more ex captains than their number of win's against test playing cricketing countries.

 

[Mean&Green]

Whatever he may reveal, he will go down as the one who lost Afghanistan a world cup match against Pakistan.

Exactly I even heard he was on a hit list in Afghanistan after he lost them that match damn that must be scary

 

[lifecric7]

Exactly I even heard he was on a hit list in Afghanistan after he lost them that match damn that must be scary

Who has put a hit list on him ?? Which group

 

[Waleed93]

He was the one who lost them the game against Pakistan. They were well set for an upset, but his remarkable bowling made sure that we got over the line.

 

[Shoaibbtt]

Afghanistan were half decent during the World Cup. They gave us and India some scares. Best spin trio I’ve ever seen in rashid Khan, mujeeb and nabi.

 

[jnaveen1980]

oh the irony is lost lol

 

[ZaudStorm]

Funny coming from the guy who bottled the only game Afghanistan were about to win.
