Pakistan again face a shameful exit from the T20 cricket World Cup as the result of rift among the team mates. We did not play as one unit and the shameful result was not a surprise. Whenever, our team lose, the pressure mounts on the captain in charge. The similar thing happened to previous captains including Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Inzamam-ul-Haq in 2007. Though we won the 2009 edition of T20 world cup under the captaincy of Younis Khan but this time it is Shahid Afridi who is attracting the negative spotlight--something he doesnt like. While he landaded at Dubai airport, there was only one person who received him.
The journo present on the airport asked Shahid Afridi if he was upset with performance of the team. He replied surprisingly saying it was not the first time we lost the major tournament and there was nothing for to worry about. Sources say, Afridi has delayed his arrival back to Pakistan supposedly due to media pressure that he has always failed to face confidently in times of crisis and defeat.
