“I have received a letter from the Board and will send my reply tomorrow,” Afridi told the News. “It’s all the result of misunderstanding and I’m sure the matter will be resolved soon.”
Afridi all but confirmed to reporters that there had been differences between him and the team management over selection issues during the five-match ODI series that Pakistan won 3-2, when he said, “Although the differences in team management are not such which could not be solved, I feel everyone should do his job and need not interfere in other’s work.”
Re: Afridi dropped from Ireland tour?/PCB decides to dump Afridi
If he is removed from captaincy, he wont have anyone else to blame for it. But If board is considering long term, then Hafeez is their man, Misbah wont be around for the next world cup.
Re: Afridi dropped from Ireland tour?/PCB decides to dump Afridi
^^ Agree with your thoughts and I have been thinking exactly that since yesterday.
However, the way I see it, if PCB is thinking of Misbah then it has to be short term…sort of a “spanking” on Afridi and they will cover it up later with “Afridi was given a rest”. And if they are really thinking longterm then it must be someone else then Misbah for the shorter formats.
Re: Afridi dropped from Ireland tour?/PCB decides to dump Afridi
to kiya hua bhai why so much hatred for him
you misread that...connect it with the paragraph before...
if PCB will say he is being rested...then will he be playing SLPL at the same time?
and no...remember history..I never bashed misbah, nor did I bash Afridi unnecessarily...so I am not a hate monger in general.... never forget
while mashallah you are now an enlightened fan...after ages of Misbah bashing...:D

munna bhai...
who is saying that there is anything wrong with him playing in SLPL...it is more so nonsensical that he be playing in SLPL but not in Pakistan team due to rest. Only way he would justify playing in SLPL and not being in team is that PCB actually "drops" him...

Re: Afridi dropped from Ireland tour?/PCB decides to dump Afridi
Won 2 series against (one against a middle-class side and one against a mediocre side) and things get awry again ..... what is it that may heal this beemari in Pakistan Cricket ..... Maybe Pakistan cricket also gets funds for just creating such news ..... well atleast it would help understanding why PCB isn't bankrupt regardless of all what went on in last few years :D
Re: Afridi dropped from Ireland tour?/PCB decides to dump Afridi
^^ it says that board will wait for final report from Manager and Waqar before deciding. So really all that has been done is Afridi submitting his response. The bigger issue is the conflict between Waqar and Afridi during the tour.
