ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s newly appointed T20I captain Shaheen Shah Afridi said on Thursday he was “thrilled and honored” to lead the country’s national squad, a day after he took over the reins of the team from former skipper Babar Azam.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced Afridi as the new captain of the squad for the shortest format of the game on Wednesday after Azam announced he was stepping down as captain from all formats of the game. The star batter took the decision to step away from captaincy following Pakistan’s dismal performance in the ongoing World Cup.
