Shahid Afridi, the former Pakistan captain, has always enjoyed being in the spotlight and continues to do so even after retiring from international cricket. On Monday (August 30), Afridi made a surprising comment to the media, stating that the Taliban, who just took control of Afghanistan, came with a "positive mind."


“The Taliban have arrived with a really upbeat attitude. They've made it possible for women to work. And I believe the Taliban are big fans of cricket,” Afridi told the Pakistani media on Monday. See video here.

“The Taliban is employing women and supporting cricket, as well as the cricket series against Pakistan. “The Taliban are highly supportive of cricket,” Afridi remarked.

Meanwhile, Afridi stated on Monday that the next Pakistan Super League (PSL) may be his final game and that he would love to play for the Quetta Gladiators.

Nadeem Omar, the owner of the Quetta Gladiators, claimed last week that Afridi informed him that he will join his PSL team for the seventh season, which would take place in 2022. Former Pakistan captain Sarfaraz Ahmed is the current captain, according to Omar, but if he willingly steps down, "we may nominate Afridi in his place."

"It is really difficult for players to train within the biosecure bubble," Afridi said to the media in Karachi, explaining why he has been playing limited cricket.

Afridi spoke on the controversial Kashmir Premier League, saying that there was a period when all the skill came from Karachi, but that the KPL is now bringing all the potential to the fore.

“There is a lack of infrastructure in cricket, therefore businessmen should work together to promote cricket,” the former Pakistan all-rounder continued.

In his international career, the 41-year-old Afridi played 37 Tests, 398 ODIs, and 99 T20 games for Pakistan.
