‘Don’t test my patience’ – Shaheen Shah Afridi Shares Cryptic Post On Instagram After Losing Pakistan T20I Captaincy

There's ongoing speculation and controversy between Shahid Afridi and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). Recently, Afridi was removed from captaincy and Babar Azam was re-elected as the captain by the PCB. This has sparked another wave of discussions and questions. Amongst these discussions, Afridi has made a post on social media (Instagram), which many netizens believe hints at the current situation.

There had been discussions about Afridi being removed from captaincy. Eventually, under the leadership of the new PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi, Afridi was removed and Babar was again entrusted with the responsibility. Only in one series against New Zealand did Pakistan play under the leadership of this pacer.

Before the upcoming T20 World Cup, the PCB handed over the captaincy to Babar. In an official statement published on the PCB website, Afridi's name was mentioned, wishing Babar well. However, Afridi later denied providing any such statement.

Afridi has shared a story on Instagram today, addressing these events. His words were, "You will never take me to a place where my harshness and ruthless face will be seen. You will not test my patience. Because I am probably the most compassionate and sweet person with whom you have mingled. But if my limit is reached, then you will see me doing things that no one would have thought I could do."

Netizens are interpreting Afridi's recent interaction with PCB through social media as an external expression of resentment.
