He showed his disappointment on failing to perform with bat and ball but said he will try to give his best in the upcoming series.
Talking about his differences with coach Waqar Younis, skipper Afridi said that everyone should mind their own business and shouldn’t poke their noses in other’s matters.
He admitted having some issues with Waqar Younis and said that he would soon call on Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Ijaz Butt and then talk to media after that meeting.
Boom Boom Afridi said that the team management has some issues but negotiation is the only way out and he would take this matters in the knowledge of the PCB chief before sharing it with the media.
