Shahid Afridi’s autobiography “Game Changer’ is in troubled waters after a petition was filed in Sindh High Court (SHC) stop further publication of his book for using inappropriate language against former cricketers.
Out-of-favour Pakistan opener Imran Farhat has criticised Shahid Afridi for ruining careers of other players for his own good. In his autobiography titled “Game Changer”, Afridi had revealed that he was not 16 years old when he made his senior national debut as he was born in 1975 and not 1980.
His disclosure drew the ire of Farhat who said that he was ashamed to know that Afridi had lied for 20 years about his age and is tarnishing the reputation of legendary Pakistan cricketers
Afridi’s autobiography has been embroiled in controversy from day one. From calling Gautam Gambhir ‘saryal’ over his on-field feud in an ODI match in 2007 to criticising Waqar Younis and Javed Miandad, his views have sparked a lot of heated responses.
In a series of tweets, Farhat took on Afridi and urged other Pakistan cricketers to come out and speak the truth about Shahid Afridi.
