Imran Farhat alleges Shahid Afridi used to ‘blackmail’ PCB
Pakistan former opening batsman Imran Farhat has slammed former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi after his controversial autobiography titled ‘Game Changer’ opened up a new pandora box in Pakistan cricket.
Farhat took to social media to express his outrage over the claims made by Afridi in his newly released autobiography. The former opening batsman claimed that Afridi used to ‘blackmail’ the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) through his ‘sponsorship.’

Farhat further added that the then PCB Chairman Ijaz Ahmed wanted to drop Afridi, as ‘all team members’ complained about him.

Farhat now joins the likes of many others criticizing Afridi over his book, including Pakistan legendary batsman Javed Miandad, former India opening batsman Gautam Gambhir.
In his book, Afridi has called Javed Miandad Pakistan’s most successful Test batsman “a small man”. “He hated the way I batted,” writes Afridi of the 1999 India tour, accusing Miandad of not giving him batting practice before the Chennai Test in which he scored a century to help Pakistan to a 12-run victory.
