He will spend his whole life proving that he is Indian: Shahid Afridi
Shahid Afridi said on Samaa TV, "I don't know what to say to him. He has told me everything. But I think that in the era of social media and proving yourself, if I say that I am a big Indian and I am against Pakistanis, I will continue to prove it all my life. He should talk to me face-to-face. I always consider a man to be one who stands in front and talks. He will spend his whole life proving that he is Indian.”
