Till that very point when he tampered the ball, he actually looked like he might be a good captain!

I just wanna know, in this day and age, didnt he KNOW he would get caught?
He has let us down! Its very embarrassing!

@ haris,

Welcome to planet earth.

This video is a part of today's match (which millions including me saw live on tv). Afridi himself has apologized on many news channels for his actions.

Now go and find out if his apologies were legit or not. Also figure out if it was the real afridi or some clone.

Afridi did something which we, in overwhelming majority, try to do very often in our daily life i.e. cheating. And strangely it is not considered as bad thing either.

However, the good thing is that Afridi confessed his wrong doing and offered apology to the nation. Examples of admitting one’s fault are very scarce amongst us. Am I wrong?

sasherwani

Wait a minute, Haris may be right, this video could have been made in hollywood, a mischief of the west.

Assalam-o-Alaikum-Warahmat-ULLAH ALL,

@sasherwani: I did not watch that match. I lost interest in sports, since I noted absence of 'competition'.

In any case, it is prudent to confirm and re-confirm what one comes across, before believing in it.

Nothing to be surprised! At the time of desparation and frustration, a person, a society, a nation can do it, to crush the whatever object in the hand, if no object then to bite and hurt own hand/finger/body......that is exactly going on in the whole society...!!

ofcourse it is West's conspiracy. They invented the game.

@ Haris,

There is a big difference between losing interest in a game and calling a video illegit. Especially when it was shown live on tv and afridi had apologized over it. Why you spamming a thread anyway with irrelevant posts when you dont even care about the sport anymore (as you yourself said). Try to be more productive with your time.

@ everyone else,

One good thing to come out of this match was that the team looked united under Afridi. Younis, Malik and Afridi discussed strategies almost after every over after the 40th over. This was the first time the team had 'the hunger' to win. That is why Australia found it difficult to chase even a meager target of 212.

You are right, actually it's a cospiracy against Islamic Republic of Pakistan's cricket team by Zionist media :)

Assalam-o-Alaikum-Warahmat-ULLAH ALL,

@****.SECULAR: There are too many conspiracies working on a larger scale to worry about this one, even if it is a conspiracy. I have no reason to believe this is/was a conspiracy.

Still, we don't need further irrelevant discourse. Please avoid it.

Afridi was really playying very high and putting every thing in the field but his confidence level dropped at once when they changed the ball and told him that why they are changing this ball.

I was watching all the match live but my interest was at once evaporated when i saw him doing this and i asked why are you so stupid to commit such thing and even if you know that they are observing you on cameras.

I also dont understand that why an experienced and senior player like Afridi was unaware of all the cameras focused on every player in the ground...i didnt watch the match but saw the news on tv...pretty shocking...

He should have been dropped from the national side when he roughed the pitch in Rawalpindi in a test match against Englnad and had a big shameless grin on his face.

He should never ever be allowed to play for the country again. He has broght disgrace and shame to the country and his act is no less than an act of treason. But I bet the PCB will slelect him again and if he is not selected certain sections of the AWAAM will have protest rallies.
What a self-respecting nation!!!

A poor and desperate attempt to win but Afridi was held accountable right on the spot and then punished right after the match.

@hariskhan

I totally agree with you. It is Zero accountability.

And it was not a desperate attempt to win. It was a shameful attempt to cheat. The accountability is not only to the match referee but also to the nation. The sporstmen are considered to be the ambasadors of their countries. What an embassador!

Guys,

Before accusing Afridi we should know the "FACTS " first ,this seems that this is the part of the global conspiracies against Pakistan and Muslim Ummah .

1-Do you think this video which came from Yahoodi Media is true ?
2-it made in Hollywood.
3-When he was eating "an abject " are you sure that was the ball because it was hidden and cannot be seen in the camera .
4-Even Shahid afridi is found guilty but this cannot be his fault and all the responsibility should go to government because Shahid Afridi tried to eat this ball because he was starving and this was due to increasing poverty in Pakistan and Pakistan situation is link with US .So all this situation is created nothing but by Black Water

I agree netengr.

Afridi is a Muslim. There was no proof that Afridi was eating the ball. It is crystal clear that he was biting his nails, forgetting that ball is also in his hand. What else could he do other than biting his nails in a match heading for 'nail biting finish'. It is all ZioWest propaganda against ...... May be Blackwater sent message to Afridi to do this. I don’t care. I strongly detest it.

Afridi got new tooth... he was just testing, .

I see no smoke of Sata Bazi here, it was just stupid mistake without thinking of consequence... well kind of Pathan Bhais' thinking.

rest all is good with team, we lost bcz of technicalities and bad planning, I am sure same team will do magic in WC
inshallah.
