Karachi: After the announcement of the Pakistan cricket team for the T20 World Cup, there is no end to the explosions in Pakistan cricket. Recently, former captain Shahid Afridi has come forward with serious allegations against the Pakistan Cricket Board. Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has revealed in a televised interview that the Pakistan Cricket Board did not provide any money or help for the treatment of pacer Shaheen Afridi, who was injured during the Test series against Sri Lanka, or for further tests in England.
He repeatedly requested the Pakistan Cricket Board about this but they did not pretend to listen. Shahid Afridi said that Shaheen went to London for further treatment at his own expense and he had secured the services of the doctor in London. Shaheen Afridi is also the future son-in-law of Shadih Afridi. The engagement between Shahid Afridi’s daughter and Shaheen Afridi took place this year.
