A bunch of insanes!
A news item on Shahid Afridi's selection as a captain: ISLAMABAD : Former Test Captain Zaheer Abbas was stunned by the decision to appoint Shahid Afridi as captain especially for the Tests. He said the selectors should have given more thought on the captaincy issue. “The move is a big gamble and could backfire as the all-rounder was not a regular in the five-day side,” Abbas said while talking to APP on Wednesday. “I am really surprised at the board’s decision because he has not played a Test in the last four years,” he said. “It is a strange decision and one that could badly backfire because Shahid (Afridi) has not been a regular Test player and his last Test was in 2006. So how can the board give him the captaincy for two very tough series against Australia and England,” he said.
