I just opened a thread as well ![]()
Fine, because of him you might say that the whole world will call us cheats. The whole world doesn’t think much of us as a country, let alone of our cricket team. So who cares.
On the side note, I sure hope so that he doesn’t repeat his mistake again but I do admire his spirit of winning the game by hook or by crook. That goes to show you that how much he wanted our team to win. I admire his dedication and his commitment to win the match. At least he DID something to win the match. What did M. Yousuf did to win matches ? Lousy placement of fielding ? Shi**y Captaincy ?
At least Afridi showed that he has the lust to see his country win. It takes balls, courage and immense effort to unit your team and lift the spirit of its team mates to try to win the last match, even though the series was already 4-0. When was the last time you saw a Captain with that kind of energy in the field and the ability to unite the players ?
So yes, he has my full support. We all make mistakes, no one is perfect and no one ever will be. What he did is in the past, he is the only hope for Pakistan. I hope he learns from his mistakes and moves on. Mark my words, he will change our team all-around in near future. He is the ONLY person after Imran Khan who has the courage, balls and the charisma to change things in our cricket team.
Afridi didn’t tamper the ball for his own interest, he did just so that our team could win the last match. He could have cared less as it was the last match, but he so much wanted to win this last match, that he did what he did, against his better judgment.
Just my
