ISLAMABAD – Pakistani Cricket Star Shahid Afridi lashes out at Indian PMNarendra Modi.

Pakistan’s legendary former all-rounder Shahid Afridi, in an exclusiveinterview with Cricket Pakistan, blamed the India’s Prime Minister NarendraModi for the declining relationship between India and Pakistan.

The 45-year-old claimed that a bilateral series with India would not bepossible until Modi is in power.

“I think we will not get a response from India until Modi is in power. Wehave all understood his mindset now. His mindset can only take you towardsnegativity. That one man can ruin the relationship of the two countrieswhich the people on both sides are against,” said Afridi.

Afridi praised the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for bringing the entireHabib Bank Limited (HBL) Pakistan Super League (PSL) 5 to Pakistan.

“The HBL PSL 5 coming to Pakistan is very big for me. We could see when SriLanka, Bangladesh came and the World XI came that cricket would return toPakistan. We were very hopeful for its return.

I would like to give the PCB and the management the credit of organizingthe entire HBL PSL in Pakistan.

This is a very big achievement. This will send a positive message toeveryone about how much love the fans here have for cricket and have beenmissing it,” he said.
