• The head coach of the Lahore Qalandars, Aqib Javed, thinks that the pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi’s injury may have been caused by too much work.

• When asked what he thought about Afridi’s being kicked off the team, the former Test cricketer told the team’s leaders to be patient.

• “It could be due to workload. Shaheen has been playing cricket continuously. No doubt, it’s a huge loss for Pakistan before Asia Cup and the team will feel his absence,”

• he told.
  

  “Team management should deal with patience. Do not panic in this situation and let Shaheen recover completely. He has a long career ahead,”

• he added. Javed said Pakistani left-arm bowlers have always troubled Indian batters.

• “Previously, it was Amir and then Shaheen, left-arm pacers always gave tough time to Indian batters. Amir led us to victory in Champions Trophy 2017 and Shaheen in T20 World Cup 2021,”
