Afridi praises ‘best fit’ captain Sarfraz

Pakistan star all rounder Shahid Afridi has showered praise on current skipper Sarfraz Ahmed, saying Sarfraz is the ‘best fit’ for leading Pakistan in all formats of the game.

“From what I see now, Sarfaraz seems to be the best fit for captain in all three formats of the game,” stated Afridi, quoted PakPassion.

The former skipper mentioned his earlier statement on Sarfraz, saying that the current captain should lead in all formats if he considers himself fit both physically and mentally, otherwise lead in limited- overs only.

“I recall advising Sarfaraz that if he had trouble handling all three formats then he should look to just play ODIs and T20Is. However, if he felt he was mentally up to it and physically fit, and could handle the pressure brought on by captaincy in all three formats, then he should carry on and do his best for Pakistan,” he said.

Curently, the six hitting machine Afridi, remains busy at the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), where he is playing for the Dhaka Dynamites. The all-rounder earlier, achieved a famous victory for his side, when he destroyed the Sylhet Sixers, taking four wickets and struck five sixes in his 15-ball 37.
