<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">LAHORE: Expressing disappointment over team’s dismal performance against India, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Shahryar Khan on Monday said T20 captain Shahid Afridi will retire after the conclusion of ongoing World T20 in India.</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
“Afridi told me himself that he will retire after this World Cup [World T20]… I didn’t force him for this decision,” said the PCB chief while speaking at a press conference here.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
“If he [Afridi] changes his mind and wants to continue playing as a player then we’ll take that decision (of playing him or not),” he added.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
Shahryar Khan said the decision of keeping Shahid Afridi as the captain till World T20 was taken 9, 10 months ago.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
“When Afridi fails to perform then people criticize him and when he wins matches for Pakistan then they go silent,” said the PCB chairman in defence of the flamboyant T20 skipper.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
Commenting over the team’s prospects in the ongoing tournament, Khan said the next two matches were really important and good performances in these encounters will cement Pakistan’s place in the semi-finals.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
“Team is passionate despite losing to India,” said Shahryar Khan.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
Speaking about bilateral cricketing ties between Pakistan and India, the PCB chief said more and more cricket between the two countries was the call of the hour.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
“We couldn’t held a bilateral series because the Indian government did not approve it,” he said, adding that the International Cricket Council (ICC) team has given a ‘good report on security situation’ in India.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
Expressing his annoyance, Shahryar Khan said Umar Akmal should not have asked the legendary cricketer, Imran Khan to recommend change in his batting position.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
Interestingly Shahryar Khan had publicly expressed his disappointment yesterday with the team after it lost a much hyped match with India.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
“Pakistan ranks seventh in the T20 format. So the country should not pin much hope on the team,” he said speaking to a British news agency.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
He said that in the match against India the team failed to grasp wickets.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
Criticizing the decision to include Mohammad Sami in the squad he said, “If three fast bowlers could not help the team win, a fourth would not make things better. There should have been a spinner in the team.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
In a statement which surprised many, he openly criticized team captain Shahid Afridi. “His future is evident. After the World Twenty20 ends, we will begin looking for another captain.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
About Coach Waqar Younis he said, “His contract ends in June. We will rethink our decision over him.”</div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
But many fans said they were let down when Shafqat sounded like he had forgotten the lyrics to the Pakistani anthem.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
"I admit that there were a few audio and technical glitches that may have sounded like lyrical errors and I will surely apologise for not being able to win your praises this time," said Shafqat in a message from his official Twitter account.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
"But (I) assure you that I had by no means 'forgotten' our beloved Qaumi Tarana (national anthem)…If I had, neither of the people who walked up to me that day would have said that they 'loved' the performance," he said, expressing disappointment at his fans for thinking he could ‘forgot’ the lines to the national anthem.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
“I will still apologise though, as I do not believe that 'apologising' change me as an artiste or a person, but I will say that I am deeply hurt by the little faith my fellow Pakistanis have in me after all these years of living and breathing the spirit of my country into my music,” he said.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 15px;">
“Nonetheless, let us still keep our faith in our #MenInGreen...They are our only team!”</div>
