Shahid Afridi hints at return of senior players

On Sunday, Shahid Afridi hinted at the possibility of senior players returning to the Pakistan men’s cricket team. Afridi was appointed as the interim head of the men’s national selection committee for the home series against New Zealand by the Pakistan Cricket Board Management Committee led by Najam Sethi on Saturday. He also said: “Babar Azam said something a few days ago that the ‘worldload should be shifted’ which is very good. There are many players who have been continuously playing all three formats and it sometimes becomes difficult.”
