Shaheen Afridi will make us all proud: Aaqib Javed
“Shaheen has natural leadership talent and this is something we figured out two years ago. This is why we promoted him as vice-captain. I personally don’t think that age has any factor when it comes to leadership. For a captain, it is important to be committed and honest; these two things are present in Shaheen in abundance,” Javed told in an Interaction.
“When we went to meet Imran Khan, I told him that Shaheen reminded me of his traits and I said that he will make us all proud. I am waiting for that time and the time will come soon,” he added.
Javed voiced on Shaheen Afridi’s captaincy potential, which he noticed during the PSL tournament which has been recently wrapped up. Javed and Shahid Afridi collaborated to make Shaheen the team’s leader, and it worked brilliantly. Former Pakistan cricketers including Salman Butt opposed Shaheen being the future captain of the Pakistan cricket team.
Aaqib Javed finished by expressing his thoughts on modern cricketers’ workload. He claims that because current players play cricket on a regular basis, they have always been fit enough to play and not needed much to have practice games before larger competitions.
“The players now are much different; be it mentally or physically. Shaheen is only 21 right now but the PCB has to manage these players once they grow a little older. For players like Shaheen and Haris, they capitalize on the rhythm and often face trouble once they take a break,” concluded Javed.
