Wasim Akram got angry at Shaheen Afridi
Regarding the decision of not playing Shaheen in the Sydney Test, former fast bowler of Pakistan team Wasim Akram said on Fox Cricket that this decision had nothing to do with the management.

Right after this series, we have to play a five-match T20 series in New Zealand and Shaheen is captaining the team in it. But who cares about T20 cricket? I know that this is just a format for entertainment and to earn money for the cricket board and also for the players.

I believe that Test cricket should be given priority.
