Grouping in Pakistani team??

So Pakistani media is reporting that team is clearly divided in two groups. One leading by Afridi while other by Shoaib Malik while vice-captain Sarfraz has no say in either.

This news came out after Afridi took on Umar Akmal for meeting Imran Khan/Sheikh Rasheed and asking them to pressurize Afridi to send him in top order.

ITs hilarious how all incompetents are fighting to get the power in team :slight_smile:

Time for Afridi fans to decide which side are they on :5:

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

Whenever you have Malik on team, this is bound to happen...he does it all the time and with coach like waqar, who bases everything on personal likes amd dislikes.. And manager who is from stone age, if these thing doesn't happen then that is a news..

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

Our press and such stories. :yawn:

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

In any such big tournament, a team is normally kept isolated. They want players to be in a zone. so that they can keep the focus and composure. They should have placed IK meeting before the tournament either way.
Secondly what was Sheikh Rasheed doing there? Was the team meeting with player IK or politician IK? Cuz if its later one, then this thing was bound to happen.

Duniya TV is telecasting Kamran Akmal's interview who confirmed this Afridi-Umar skirmish and ofcourse defended his brother alleging Afridi for targeting him. Everything is such a chaos in our team.

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

Chaos increase is simply obeying the 2nd Law.

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

Let’s not politicise every damn issue.

Imran Khan is in India on the invitation of ICC/World T20 organisers and it was Afridi who personally approached him for this pep talk

I do not agree with Umar Akmal’s approach, effectively bypassing Afridi and the team management but when your captain is clueless and does not understand that best batsmen in the team should play the maximum number of overs etc., then desperate measure are needed sometimes. Against India sending inform batsman Hafeez (after Malik and Sarfraz) in the last over was typical of this stupid decision-making by Afridi.

IK is saying the reverse if anything

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

What are Imran Khan ' s views on TPP and BLM?

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

What is TPP and BLM?

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

@ Southie

This is a sports forum but since you asked

If you mean TTP then I don't agree with Imran's stance on TTP. I have zero tolerance for extremism of any kind esp. religious
If BLM (= Baluchistan something) then I do not agree with what RAW is allegedly doing there

Calling a spade a spade :)

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

Trans-pacific partnership and Black lives matter (movement). Southie lost track of forums :\

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

The players are split into two groups

'Dubai kuch dinon k liye jayein' OR

'Seedhey ghar jayein aur jootiyan khayein' group

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

It was the final revolt against Afridi led by Malik and betrayed by Shahzad and UAkmal

Cricinfo has reported that there was a very low intense practice and morale seems very down in Pakistani camp.

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

so looks like Pak vs Aus is going the down the drain too

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

Umar Akmal is cartoon....

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??

well shoaib malik has spoken from his heart…there has been no conspiracy by anyone. we shd trust what he is saying. why would he, ahmad shezad or umaar do a conspiracy? malik own position in team is not safe. why wud he play bad?

pakistani fans ko sharam aaniee chayee and i am first one who who shd be embarrassed. at least fans shd use some common logic… ahmad shezad is afiridi’s best friend and just because he could not hit the ball, we started to blame him for doing conspiracy theories.

Re: Grouping in Pakistani team??
