ISLAMABAD – February 10 (ONLINE): Pakistan’s former speedster Shoib Akhtar has said that he believes former Pakistan star all-rounder Shahid Afridi will ‘100 percent join politics’.
Talking on a private news channel’s show, Shoib said that current government and Prime Minister Imran Khan should focus on core problems of Pakistanis instead of focusing on former prime minister Nawaz Sharif and other ‘non-issues’.
Talking about the the Pakistan Super League (PSL), he said he will turn it into an even bigger brand than the Indian Premier League (IPL) if he becomes the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
Shoib also urged the Lahore Qalandars’ management to sell the franchise to him. “If I played PSL, I would opt to play for Lahore Qalandars.”
The former pacer also predicted that the Qalandars, who are currently in a fine position, will get into a difficult situation in PSL seven’s Lahore leg.
