As per reports, The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is investigating team managers' inaction after Shaheen Afridi, the star pacer, misbehaved with coaches and management staff during recent tours.

According to reports, Afridi's inappropriate behavior was not addressed by the team managers, who failed to maintain discipline.

PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi has also ordered a probe into players forming lobbies within the team, which has led to a non-serious attitude among some players, disrupting the team atmosphere and causing players to speak out against each other.

Does Shaheen think captaincy is his farther in laws right or property.. hope his played his last game for Pak. USA loss is on him could see it he was deliberately underperforming.

I somewhat agree with others that Shaheen can't be blamed for it as the captaincy was taken away from him after just one series in charge. Having said that the statement states that he misbehaved in 'recent tours'... If this was the case prior to his captaincy and during that one tour when he was captain then that should surely change some people's views on him.

There is that argument that whatever has transpired, when you put your national uniform on (this includes when you're on tour, not just during the game), you remain professional and give it your all. This is why I say 'somewhat agree'.

Finally, discipline or no discipline, I do think Shaheen needs to get has act together as a bowler. He has become a one trick pony and his line and lengths are all over the place. If he is carrying an injury then he must be dropped/rested, if it is just form then let him play first class cricket and earn his place in the side.
 
If true completely unprofessional by SSA, what will he do if Rizwan or Asif Ali gets the next captain job.

Bro, this is how we force our players to misbehave, and then we investigate them for misbehaving, which ultimately leads to the downfall of their careers.
 
I don't think I have ever seen a single move in Pakistan Cricket disrupt a whole set of dominoes and set on a chain reaction.

The move to change captaincy from Shaheen back to Babar has and is doing a lot of damage to Pakistan Cricket.
 
So if strict disciplinary action is taken Pakistan team could de without

1.SSA
2.Rizwan
3.Babar
4.Imad
5.Shadab
6.Iftikhar
7.Rauf
8.AzamKhan
9.Abrar

Stunning, that Will open the doors for Asif Ali Sarfraz Sharjeel and Malik

You are reading too much into this.

My default attitude now which has been shaped after enduring many years of this nonsense is that leaks about groupings and bad behaviour are always intented to hide the true responsibility.

Our system is in tatters. That's the reality. Players being friends won't make them into good players.
 
Babar Azam is one Shaatir individual, he will succeed in staying on as captain whereas Shaheen and Rizwan will be targeted and kicked out for grouping. I don't think we have ever seen such a powerful captain before.

Was Shaheen informed before the NZ series that he is only captain for one series or he will be removed if the results ain’t great?

To be able to be at your best, the work environment needs to be healthy. He probably had a chip on his shoulder for a while, it’s not neccesarily a bad thing because we need more of that from a fast bowler and proper man management from his captain to get the best out of him. But imagine you’re on edge and you’re promoted to a leadership position, and a week later you are taken out and one of your mates accepts the job who is meant to be the guy who you look to for support. Shaheen is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but he has been done dirty so many times. I wouldn’t question his effort, he was willing to play for Pakistan on one leg and that expectation was wrong / draconian, the gross mismanagement of his career may have potentially ruined what should be a world class career for a long time.

He was promoting himself to the middle order. They did the right thing removing him.

No he didn't? Are you confusing the national side with Lahore Qalandars? He did not promote himself to the middle order in any game in that one series he captained. And the fact that you credited his whole removal with just that one point that isn't even true. I know you know better than that.

I agree that Zaka is also to blame. Zaka, Naqvi, Babar, Rizwan, Ramiz, are all to blame

He has been incredibly patient with all that is happening. The treatment PCB have given him. They don't deserve him.
 
Shaheen saved Pakistan from losing the series against the New Zealand depleted side. He also played a pivotal role in helping them win the series decider against Ireland. Without him, Babar Azam's captaincy tenure would have been far more depressing.
 
After PCB's medical panel nearly ended his career, and Mohsin Naqvi ended his captaincy after one series (assisted by his supposed friend backstabbing him and greedily accepting the captaincy), it's unsurprisingly Shaheen's in a negative mental space.

That said you shouldn't misbehave with your fellow players or officials who had no say in the decision.

He did promote himself in internationals.

Also he doesn't have the personality or the prescence to be a captain.

This is why I blame Zaka, why did he change captaincy so close to a world cup? Why did he pick someone not suited to the role?

This is all Zaka's fault. He rocked the boat. Shaheen was never captaincy material.
 
After the whirlwind religious, brown nosing and flatterious press conference, this seems to be the next attempt to eliminate a potential captain rival by team Naqvi, Rizwan and agents.

Babar is certainly out of favour. SSA misbehaved with coaches and staff. Path clear to crown Riz as the next King of Pak cricket.

Babar is not to be solely blamed for the recent performances and current mess that is in Pakistan Cricket. But because he finds himself alone at the moment. He sure will feel the most pressure when the fingers are pointed at him.
 
Barbar is partly to blame.

He has a say in the final 11 and continuously playing the likes of Shadab as a specialist batsmen is inexcusable.

I think the misbehaviour is a fabrication bro.

Our board thinks that we are dumb enough to believe that our team only loses because of lack of unity. So they make these excuses to try and fool us while they can sit without accountability.

PCB is accountable to PM.

PM is accountable to establishment.

Establishment is accountable to no one.

So basically no one is accountable to the people.

Thats the problem

If PCB cooked up these charges. Shame on them.

Babar has a track record of back stabbing people. Imad had won Karachi Kings the PSL Title in 2020 but 2 years later he pressurized the KK management to have him replace Imad as captain and that is when the relationship b/w Imad and Babar deteriorated.
 
I think it was unfair how captaincy was taken away from him. However, I don’t think he underperformed on purpose though. That would only bite him if the 10 other players perform well and win games for the team. He looked a little jaded and maybe not fully fit.

Also the headline says he misbehaved with the coaching staff. Not with his team mates. I thought the coaching staff were all brand new

Coaching staff must have given him specific plans to bowl at and he probably thought he knows better.

It’s a bit like a coach telling Rizwan to improve his off side game and he always ignores them because he knows how to maintain his average of 50 every tournament
 
How a confidential report submitted by the coach got out in the media so easily is my first question. PCB is the biggest sports organization in the country, yet they can't keep their secret reports secret. How cute! This leakage is a deliberate attempt to make Shaheen Afridi the scapegoat; obviously, the PCB chairman is not fond of him, and for the very same reason, Shaheen got sacked as a captain. Secondly, if Shaheen was involved in lobbying, how come Shadab Khan kept on playing in the team? Do you think players like Fakhar Zaman and Mohammad Rizwan, who both are potential white ball skippers for Pakistan in the future, could make a mistake like that? Saim and Azam Khan are the two newcomers; can they afford to be part of the lobby right now? It just sounds hilarious. Imad and Aamir got back into the team due to the chairman and solely to play in the World Cup; are you blaming them for underperforming? Iftikhar Ahmed and Haris Rauf are the other two regular members of the team. Iftikhar's skills are always limited, and his career is almost on the verge of an end. Would he swear against Babar Azam, I don't really think so. Haris Rauf? Yes, he conceded 15 runs against the USA, but you could never think of him as someone who would underperform willingly. Every time he steps on the field, he gives his best, and you can feel the intensity and passion he brings in. It's just so disrespectful to protect one player; they are using all kinds of false tactics to blame every other member of the team.

Funnily enough, Pakistan got knocked out of the World Cup due to batting failures, not because of bowlers, how come that's Shaheen's fault? It just doesn't make any sense; the only reason Shaheen was made the scapegoat is to collect sympathy for PR King Babar Azam and keep him white ball captain till the 2026 Champions Trophy, as we all know Mohsin Naqvi is always so high on him.

Welp, we are not buying it; try harder, PR teams. 😂😂
 
They're blaming Shaheen for grouping and other speculations. Babar couldn't chase 120 along with Bradman Rizwan. Babar couldn't make runs against the USA; Babar lost against Zimbabwe and couldn't chase 120. Babar couldn't score against Afghanistan, nor did he play a single match-winning innings against any opponent in a World Cup when the score was under 130 in a T20 match. How can you blame Shaheen for all the losses with the tag of grouping? Chalo maan liya. Grouping hai, why the hell Babar isn't able to chase down the score under 130 in a World Cup??
Babar's grouping is above anyone else. Shadab, Nawaz, Hassan Ali, and many more are the prime examples.

Pakistan won 6 Matches after the Reappointment of Babar Azam as Captain

𝗣𝗢𝗧𝗠 in those 6 Matches :
• Shaheen
• Shaheen
• Rizwan
• Shaheen
• Amir
• Shaheen

• 𝟰 - Shaheen
• 𝟭 - Rizwan

Mark my words, Babar's paid PR will trouble Shaheen forever and his blind followers will believe.

I agree with everything except for the groupings or causing disharmony, that shouldn't happen.

He would have been better off just making himself unavailable then causing frictions.

However, as of now we don't know if he did anything of the sort...

What we do know is that Babar should be removed from captaincy, an overhaul in both the team and the PCB is paramount.
 
Shahid Khan Afridi is not helping SSA cause by constantly undermining Babar with foolish statements and giving signals of instigation to players.

Wahab Razzaq etc all are under the influence of Shahid Afridi may be that's why they refrained from taking action against SSA, yet Babar is being polluted in all this.

PCB made a blunder by sacking Babar after 2023 WC then another hasty decision to appoint SSA and then the bemusing appointment of Babar again. Now if they sack Babar it Will be complete 360°
Somebody has to stop them here , may be QFE should jump in via soumotto as he already is being spanked from all centres in political cases
 
Shaheen was playing for Pakistan not for Babar or PCB. If he was deliberately underperforming/creating issues, he should be banned. No one is above Pakistan.

Pakistan should take two steps.
1. Ban all these players who intentionally underperformed/created issues.
2. Sack Babar and announce a new captain.

PCB needs to clean this mess as soon as possible but they have been delaying it, thus creating a bigger mess.

Pakistan won 6 games since Babar's reappointment. Shaheen got 4 player of the match awards in them. How is that underperforming?
 
Shaheen apparently had a tiff with Yousuf as well during a training session.

Don’t mind that at all. Yousuf has always been lobbying for Babar and is very much anti-Afridi (Shahid). He’s also served as a batting consultant for Peshawar Zalmi hence he clearly is part of that Javed Afridi nexus.

Throughout the T20 World Cup he kept bowling full-tosses. According to some reports, the coach asked him to bowl back of length deliveries on those pitches but SSA gave him a shut up call. And now we are hearing about his behavioral issues as well. I think he didn’t try his best, in other words, it was deliberate. He should be held accountable.
 
Said it during the WC and will say it again... Shaheen has become an extremely toxic individual after the whole captaincy saga. I will go as far as saying that he has deliberately underperformed in certain situations (e.g. 50 over WC in the game vs SA - the guy kept bowling in the channel while SA were 9 down. Not a single delivery aimed at the stumps).

Shaheen needs to be suspended for at least a year and should be told in clear terms that he has no chance of becoming Pak captain. He can play as many leagues as he wants. Pak won't suffer much as he was already your 3rd best pacer after Amir and Naseem in the WC.
 
Nothing justifies misbehaving and not giving your 100% on the field. It's highly unprofessional and childish behaviour.

Hardik Pandya was also removed after a very brief captaincy stint. Did that create any controversy? Did he start underperforming and trying to undermine Rohit?

Fact is, our players are just a bunch of greedy entitled clowns.
 
What has this bloke achieved to have any semblance of ego?

He had a semi good run in 2019-2021 and hasn't done anything since.
 
PCB created this mess themselves by doing that captaincy drama. Actions are required now and some strict ones to clean this mess.

There was always talks about the groupings and if this news is true, those groups will also get exposed.
 
If SSA was unhappy about being removed from the captaincy, he should have excused himself from the T20 World Cup instead of underperforming and causing divisions within the team. Nothing is more important than performing for the country.

If his ego was hurt, he should have given up all these perks and protested against the PCB and Babar on a TV show, like Imad, Amir, and Shehzad did.

True, never expected such behaviour from him. I hope all these reports are just rumours. Also, when Amir had disagreements with PCB, he openly spoke about it on national TV but the moment he was bought back, he gave his 100% for the country.
 
These kinds of things happen when you are greedy and cannot see anyone getting some promotion or getting ahead of you.

Shaheen wanted captaincy I think that is why all of this drama happened otherwise there is no real reason for this behavior.

Country should come first but for these guys, country comes first only if you start from the bottom.
 
PCB is a corrupt entity whose only interest seems to be to satiate Babar's ego and his fans.

The way they behaved with Shaheen and throwing him out after only one series is very questionable.

However, you can't cry about it and start shirking by deliberately underperforming just because you were treated unfairly by a toxic board.

That's like a doctor who was passed for promotion to be a head of department to start butchering surgeries so the hospital can get a bad reputation.

Shaheen needs to focus on bowling because at the moment he seems shadow of a pacer he once was.

He should focus on his own career and forget about captaincy.

It will come, when it will come.

Had started sympathising with Babar falling for his PR teams' contribution after the World Cup debacle.
Not anymore. :inti
 
I think it all started in 2022, before the Pakistan and Afghanistan T20 series in the UAE. Shahid Afridi lobbied strongly to get the captaincy for Shaheen in Babar's absence. The PCB strongly rejected it and appointed the then vice-captain, Shadab, as the leader of the team for the Afghanistan series, resting Rizwan, Shaheen, and Babar. Shahid Afridi has always been a politician with the mentality of a five-year-old. Unfortunately, Shaheen is also following in his footsteps and will bear the consequences.

There is no doubt that Shahid was a superstar cricketer during his peak playing career, but he was also a big liar, hypocrite, and politician in the team during his senior years. He lobbied against Younis Khan as well as Misbah.

Also, appointing Shaheen as captain for one series and then removing him is not a good idea. He should not be blamed for this. The PCB itself is to blame. Why do they allow players to become giants in the team? They should have a strict rest/rotation policy like India, Australia, New Zealand, and England. These teams rest their main players for bilateral series and bring top players in for ICC events.

It was due to Shaheen's underperformance that Babar was 7(24) against the USA, Rizwan was trying to sweep Bumrah and Shadab continued to play as a specialist batter.

There is a difference between underperforming and lack of skills. I would take a mediocre player than a player having better skills along with toxicity .

Is there any report regarding Babar and Rizwan or any other player underperforming? If yes, then this applies to them also.

Any clear example of Shaheen's underperformance from the recently concluded events? It is just an eyewash to make Babar feel secure for his captaincy instead of holding him accountable. How come such a confidential report was leaked to media. Shaheen may have been sour due to his removal as a captain but this had to be resolved through internal discussion and resolving Babar's and Afridi's differences. This is more like throwing him under the bus.
 
There is no doubt that Shaheen was wronged by Babar and PCB but he should have given his best for the team.

Babar is a manipulative, toxic guy who surely has the backing of sponsors and the corrupt Javed Afridi. Its high time to kick both Babar and Shaheen out of the side to set an example. Let Rizwan lead until the CT, or the second choice is to have Shan Masood lead the side. Its very clear now that Babar is as toxic, manipulative, and shady as his cousins.
 
Why was Shaheen posting pictures of him babar Rizwan with love emojis when speculations of conflict were being made?
