“If anyone is unable to stand on his own feet and then the decision to make such strong calls is not easy,” Afridi said on Samaa TV.
“They have to look at plenty of things. India agar aankhe dikha raha hain (If India is showing you their eyes), or taking such strong stance, then they have made themselves that strong, hence they are being able to talk like this, otherwise they wouldn’t have the courage. At the end it’s making yourself strong and then take decisions.”

Afridi, who most recently served as the Pakistan Cricket Board’s interim top selector, continued by saying that if India didn’t change their mind about visiting Pakistan, the International Cricket Council will continue to play a crucial role.
- India has made it known that, due to political unrest, they will not participate in the Asia Cup in Pakistan.
- India’s stern no attitude has left PCB unsatisfied, and they have announced that they would not visit India to compete in the 50-over World Cup.
- However, PCB is eager to host the Asia Cup in their own backyard and is ready to offer players top-notch protection.
