Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Faruque Ahmed said the board can’t take responsibility for the alleged non-payment of Pakistan legend Shahid Afridi.

"In 2025 Pakistan was playing the cricket style of the 1980s and 1990s while other teams had progressed well to adopt an aggressive and modern style," Shahid Afridi told AFP.

Former Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal said that he has retired and no longer wants to play for the national team during a conversation with Pakistan cricket legend Shahid Afridi.

Posting on X, Afridi stressed on the fact that Pakistan had repeatedly toured India despite strained relations between the two nations, particularly since the 2008 Mumbai attacks.

ICC T20 World Cup ambassador Shahid Afridi in an exclusive column in ICC said that Afghanistan can win the World Cup and it shouldn't come as a surprise if Rashid Khan's side manage to go all the way.

Afridi said that Babar missed out on a chance to do the honourable thing when the selectors approached him to return as the white-ball captain ahead of the T20 World Cup.

“He knows many things and so do I, but we cannot talk openly. I will speak openly after the World Cup, our people themselves have spoiled this unit.”

Pakistan legend Shahid Afridi is excited that the American public will witness cricket’s equivalent of the Super Bowl in New York on Sunday when Pakistan take on archrivals India in a blockbuster T20 World Cup encounter.

The 2009 T20 World Cup champions have included five quality fast bowlers in their 15-player squad for the ninth edition of the tournament, with left-armer Shaheen Afridi to spearhead a pace attack alongside Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Abbas Afridi and Mohammad Amir.

Afridi is synonymous with Pakistan's most memorable moments in T20 World Cup history.

Former Pakistan skipper Shahid Afridi said that his son-in-law Shaheen Shah Afridi deserves to be given enough time to prove his credentials as the T20I captain of the national team.

Afridi zeroed in on Babar’s failure to win matches for Pakistan with the bat, which the likes of Kohli and KL Rahul have been doing for hosts India.

Afridi, who still holds the record for most sixes in ODIs, believes that Iftikhar has what it takes to play such a knock. 

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have been engaged in a dispute over the hosting rights for the Asia Cup 2023.

Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi launched a scathing attack on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his strict policies and said that ever since the Indian PM took office, nothing positive has come out for Pakistan, and neither can anything be expected in the future from the head of the Indian government.

Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has warned his son-in-law for calling him “sasur (father-in-law) in public.

Pakistan skipper Babar Azam should stand aside and give Mohammad Haris his opener slot to boost their top order firepower in Wednesday's Twenty20 World Cup semi-final against New Zealand, former captain Shahid Afridi said.

Shahid Afridi starred with a 25-ball 39 to take Comilla Victorians to victory over Sylhet Sixers on the second day of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.

Shahid Afridi accomplishes a hat-trick to help the Pakhtoons beat Virender Sehwag's Maratha Arabians by 25 runs in a T10 match at Sharjah.

Bangladesh’s Shakib Al Hasan is set to feature in a T-10 league at the Arab Emirates in December.
