Shahid Afridi, the legendary all-rounder, has warned Pakistan left-arm seamer Shaheen Shah Afridi not to call him ‘sasur’, which means father-in-law, in public ever again.
Shaheen is Shahid’s son-in-law as he is married to the latter’s daughter.
Despite this, the former interim chief selector instructed the 23-year-old speedster to never call him his father-in-law in front of people.
“I don’t want to hear this word from your mouth again,” he was quoted as saying by Cricket Pakistan.
Pakistan are now playing a two-Test series against Sri Lanka, which is being held in Galle and Colombo until July 28.
