Disquiet In Pakistan Camp After Altercation Between Skipper Shan And Afridi
Shaheen Shah Afridi: Pakistan’s shocking defeat against Bangladesh in the first Test has triggered war of words and discontent in the team’s dressing room after an altercation between a hapless skipper Shan Masood and under-performing pace spearhead Shaheen Shah Afridi.
Pakistan failed to survive two sessions of the first Test on Tuesday and were bowled out for a paltry 163 – their second lowest total against Bangladesh -- in a chase of 268 – to suffer their third consecutive defeat against the Tigers following their two losses at home in 2024.
“A disgruntled Shan blamed lack of speed from the pace attack, pointing a finger at Shaheen whose average speed was 132 kph, much below the pace of Bangladesh’s Nahid Rana who bowled around 145 kph on average,” sources told Telecom Asia Sport.
