Summary
Captain Shahid Afridi has described the tour to England that ended yesterday as one of the most arduous of his cricket career. It was one of the most difficult tours of my 14-year career, said Afridi. It was difficult to even venture out of the hotel, there were people hooting at us and there was lot of pressure on the players. He also hinted of return to Test cricket if needed in the Test series against South Africa to be played in United Arab Emirates next month. I will think about it and if the team needs me, I may consider playing the Test series against South Africa, he told reporters on his return from London with team-mates Shahzaib Hasan, Asad Shafiq and Fawad Alam. We faced a lot of problem because of the controversies and became very difficult to cope with, because every time we went out people passed remarks against us, he said. Team remained united despite the storm of controversy, he said. The best part of the whole tour was that the players showed unity even in difficult times and gave a good fight in the one-day series against England, he said.
