[PICTURES] Senior cricketers' attitude towards junior cricketers

[FearlessRoar]

During the Group A match between Ireland and Pakistan in ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Shaheen Shah Afridi was displaying inappropriate behavior towards Mohammad Abbas Afridi.

Whether Afridi has become arrogant or if he is simply expressing resentment over being removed as T20I captain?

As a senior player, he should be setting a better example for his teammates and fans, especially the younger generation who look up to him as a role model.

This behavior is not new in Pakistan cricket. In the past, even Imran Khan, Wasim Akram and Sarfaraz Ahmed have been known to display similar behavior.

I noticed Babar was telling Abbas to ignore Shaheen.

There is no such thing as a senior or junior cricketer.

 

[Rana]

That was pathetic by Shaheen

 

[Cricket Warrior]

if this is his behavior towards the young players who eventually need ur backing then u truly not derve to become a leader.

 

[ElRaja]

shaheen has been stroppy since the whole captaincy mess, he should have just retired from internationals.

There is no such thing as a senior or junior cricketer.

Absolutely correct.

Anyone who plays at this level is a professional and worthy of respect.

Besides, what has Shaheen accomplished to be considered senior? The standards of Pakistan cricket continue to deteriorate when these nobodies are called seniors.

Used to like the guy..now he sucks against main nations and puts in performances against minnows.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Maybe he was shouting and telling him to not dive and injure himself.

 

[hamzie]

Maybe he was shouting and asking what he was doing after the game

Unfortunately, in Pakistan senior players don't like junior players to perform well so they cannot replace them in the team.

Shaheen is par with Babar and Rizwan for our destruction. All 3 are top class traitors and greed has destroyed them.

Could you please remind us again how Azam Khan is a match winner?

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Disgusting attitude but not surprising.

Babar and his gang of 3 have transformed our team into nothing more but a SAYA mafia that benefits only those who worship Babar and Rizwan

Enough is enough I say. Shaheen might have the talent but with how far his ego has gone off the roof, he must be dropped and be replaced by Mir Hamza who can do everything Shaheen does but better and without the baggage of any ego

Shaheen was expecting only 2 runs to be conceded. Batsmen took 3 runs - hence the disappointment.

but abbas gave his 100% on the field, shaheen should have appreciate his effort to boost confidence of a youngster
