Khaqan Shahnawaz voiced sharp criticism of Shaheen Afridi, using a sarcastic tone to highlight Pakistan’s inability to produce a consistently impactful fast bowler despite a population of 240 million. He expressed disappointment over Afridi’s recent performances, suggesting that the bowler’s natural pace and evident potential have not translated into match-winning contributions.

Shahnawaz emphasized that, given the vast talent pool available in the country, it is surprising that Afridi has struggled to meet expectations in crucial moments, reflecting concerns over Pakistan’s ability to consistently nurture and utilize its fast-bowling resources.
