Pakistan great Shahid Afridi has claimed that he, legendary seamer Shoaib Akhtar and iconic all-rounder Abdul Razzaq were all treated like Mohammad Amir during their careers.
Afridi, Akhtar and Razzaq are among the greatest players Pakistan have ever produced.
The big-hitter’s comments come after Amir announced his retirement from international cricket.
Amir alleged that he was being “mentally tortured” by the PCB and felt that the current team management had deliberately been snubbing him for selection.
Afridi said he can relate to Amir as he, Akhtar and Razzaq were all treated the same way.
“In the past, I, Shoaib Akhtar and Abdul Razzaq had a similar case like Mohammad Amir,” he was quoted as saying by PakPassion.

The result shows just how ignorant our youth is about cricket who have put Shahid Afridi above legends like Javed Miandad and Zaheer Abbas and Imran Khan. Perhaps they do not know about cricketing career of even Imran Khan and just voted for him because of his political career. If they had actually known about him he would have rated much ahead of Shahid Afridi and so would have Javed Miandad and Zaheer Abbas. I would request people to go to Wikipedia to search for the statistics of these players before voting for them.
And also the fact that there’s no Inzamam & Yousuf in the options shows that even the created of this poll has very little knowledge about cricket.
