I am a big fan of Afridi because 1.He never played a boring game.Instead always thrills spectators with his swashbuckling batting and fast legbreaks also electrifying fielding 2.He is a player of big occasions.Was MOS is WT20 2007,MOM in SF and final in WT20 2009,MOM in Asia Cup final 2012,Captained his team to reach WC SF 2011 where he was the leading wicket taker 3.The only player in ODI history to score 7000 runs and take 350 wickets also 1000 runs and 50 wickets in T20I. 4.Holder of many world records.2 of the first 2 fastest centuries,maximum sixes in ODIs,best allround performance ever (76 runs and 7 wickets) in a single match.And so on Afridi is one of the best ODI allrounders in the history of cricket like Jayasurya.He has ups and downs and his batting form declined dramatically over the years.But he is not a bits and pieces allrounder and when he is on song it really matters.
in cricket all the people need disiplin. thanks to BCCI. for bringing disiplin to indian cricket. we do not know there may be diffrence bitween indian cricket players too. but they have no freadum to say those things in public..

common pakisthani players distroy yourself. this pakisthan should be kick out of cricket. cricket is game of jentilman. cricket is not a game of terarists.
Afridi is a liability for Pak cricket. He does bowl well, but he is an all rounder and people expect him to bat according to the situation. He plays only a few deliveries, hits a six and gets out the next ball. He retires and then comes back. Afridi is like what Rohit Sharma used to be. But Rohit is now showing his capacity, but Afridi?

don't compare Afridi to Rohit,Rohit has got sound tech and temperament for long innings although has was having attitude problems which he has sorted out
