The comments came just days after former Pakistan national cricket team skipper Shahid Afridi slammed the national selectors. The selection committee faced heavy criticism following a humiliating 2-1 One Day International series defeat against the Bangladesh national cricket team in Dhaka last week.
“Now everyone is saying that Shaheen should not be the ODI captain. He shouldn't even be in the T20I team. People are now saying that he should become the captain of the T20I side after the World Cup debacle,” Latif said.
Shaheen Afridi’s Struggles in ICC T20 World Cup 2026
The 25-year-old fast bowler endured a miserable T20 World Cup 2026 campaign. Shaheen Afridi leaked 31 runs in two overs against the India national cricket team. The team management dropped him for the subsequent group-stage match against the Namibia national cricket team.
Since the 2022 tournament, Shaheen has struggled to find swing and has leaked runs across formats. His inability to strike during the powerplay overs has put heavy pressure on the rest of the Pakistan bowling attack.
