The most famous Pakistani cricketer Shahid Afridi is out of form in the field nowadays, but he is still in-form out of the field. During media briefing on Wednesday at Gaddafi Stadium Lahore, Shahid Afridi showed his anger on journalist. According to the media reports, a reporter had asked him a question regarding his performance as a captain of Pakistani Cricket Team. Reporter asked that why Pakistani team had not performed well in World Cup, under his captaincy. While replying this question, Shahid Afridi smiled and said that he was expecting pathetic (Ghatia) question from him. Last year, Shahid Afridi had teased India by singing Mauka Mauka.
After this unexpected and non-professional reply from Shahid Afridi, journalists protests outside Gaddafi Stadium and asked Shahid Afridi to apologize on his reply. Pakistani news channels have badly criticized Shahid Afridi on his anger, while people on social media have also condemned the statement of Shahid Afridi.
Intikhab Alam also gets involved in this issue and tried his best to calm the journalists. PCB Chairman Shehryar Khan also asked the journalists to ignore the statement of Shahid Afridi. He also said that due to Pushto speaking, Urdu of Afridi is not so good, that’s why he doesn’t even know what he has said.
On the other end, Shahid Afridi came on line on different TV channels and said that particular journalist has been teasing him from his silly questions for a long time.
