Sorry to burst your bubble, but a lot of us DO care, and rather than seeing the nation and its representatives keep at it to take us to skid row, we’d like for someone to do something positive for a change and make us proud.
I was happy to see that Afridi was leading extremely well until the fiasco… it was a pleasant change from the dreadfully docile captaincy we’ve seen over the last two months. However, nothing can excuse his despicable cheating antics. He needs to understand the difference between the “desire to win” - which is greatly missing from our team… and “winning at any cost” - which is not a sensible mindset in sports.
Having voiced my condemnation for this specific incidence, I still think in the current context, Afridi is perhaps the only option we have for a captain who can lead the team with the zeal that’s needed… only if he can channel his aggression towards a more prudent form of dedication. I hope he’s learnt his lesson, and we can see him back as a captain in the ODI and T20 formats.
