Shoaib Malik controversy:

There is a controversy that Shoaib malik was not fit for captaincy as he took guidance from the wrong people for wrong things.Of course, stats don’t lie and it’s hard not to support an argument which is based on numbers. And questions, ‘pathetic’ or not, must be asked.

But tables and numbers must be assessed objectively.Shoaib Malik’s record is largely skewed considering 7 out of his 12 wins were in matches against Bangladesh (3), Zimbabwe (1), Scotland (1), Canada (1), and Kenya

Waqar Younus controversy:

Shahid Afridi said Waqar Younus was not a good captain and coach He did not stand to build unity in a timepolitical controversy

.According to Afridi politics is not for PATHANS Imran khan is a quiet leader but some people in his team uses his name for their own benefit and Nawaz sharif knows how to deliver.

CONCLUSION

There were so many controversies in his book and also so many fun things about his life which were quite personal and enjoyable.

He wrote some of his friendships with the girl when he was a teenager and friendship with other cricketers Wasim Akram is one of his very great companions.

As this book is written by a journalist so it’s not in the flow he has gathered different parts and wrote them together but still, it is worthy.

Afridi said Kashmir na Hindustan ka hai na hi Pakistan ka balky Kashmir, Kashmir ka hai. This behavior is much needed. Here I am ending this blog and I will give this book 7/10. If you are a fan of Shahid Afridi than its a must-read for you
