Afridi's 'Boom Boom' reply to IPL
Shahid Afridi has been widely criticized by former Indian and current cricketer by tweeting a political comment on the Kashmir issue. Mohammad Kaif tweeted, "I do not think that Afridi used to say such things when Pakistani players got the opportunity to play in the IPL." Afridi, in response to the Indian captain's flat drive, said he would not be playing in the IPL.Earlier, three Indian soldiers and 13 suspected militants were killed in a gunfight in Kashmir under Indian control in Srinagar. Afridi tweeted in protest, "The situation in Kashmir occupied by India is awful and anxious. Talking about freedom is the loss of lives of innocent people. Surprised, where is the United Nations or other international organizations now? Will they do anything to stop this bleeding? '
After the tweet of Pakistan's former captain, the Indian cricketers turned upside down in criticism. To the cricket personality like Sachin Tendulkar, he said, 'No one should know or do not need to know what to do.' Suresh Raina tweeted, 'Hopefully, Afridi's brother will request Pakistani military forces to stop terrorism and war in Kashmir.'
Afridi did not sit quietly. It is called 'Boom Boom' batting! Afridi, 38, of Pak Pakshan, said, "They would not play even if they called me. To me, PSL is big and there will be a time when it will be overtaking the IPL. Enjoy the PSL. There is no need to play in the IPL. It is not about interest, it never was. '
Not only that, Afridi is considered himself a soldier of the country. If the cricketer was not, or would join the military, "If the cricketer was not able to join the military. I'm not even concerned about reacting to my tweets. It believes that I have told the truth and have the right to say the truth. I am a soldier in my country. My country is my honor, Pakistan is everything to me.
