Shahid Afridi, Javed Miandad likely to meet today
Sources told that Javed Miandad is likely to take back match fixing charges against Shahid Afridi.
KARACHI (Dunya News) – A meeting between former Twenty20 captain Shahid Afridi and former player Javed Miandad is expected today (Saturday).
Sources told that Javed Miandad is likely to take back match fixing charges against Shahid Afridi while both cricket legends would also try to sort out their differences.
Earlier, Javed Miandad said that Afridi’s remarks disappointed him deeply but he had forgiven him as he is senior and mentored Afridi for years.
Miandad also wished former T20 captain with all the luck and prayers.
On the other hand, Wasim Akram took to the Twitter and posted that it’s really hurting what is going on between two legends.
He said that both players had contributed a lot for the cricket in Pakistan.
Akram also demanded an appropriate mediation to resolve the matter as soon as possible.
Further, Shahid Afridi decided to send a legal notice to Javed Miandad over baseless match fixing allegations.
During a press conference in Karachi, a reporter asked Afridi that “Javed Miandad said that you wanted farewell game only for money”.
To this Afridi answered that “money has always been an issue for Javed Miandad”.
Later, Afridi took to social media and tweeted that he regrets what he said but Miandad made personal attacks on Afridi and he was tolerating for a long time.
He said that it was compulsory for him to show reaction after Miandad‘s remarks on TV.
Furiously responding to Afridi’s statement, Miandad termed his junior as match fixer and said he sold entire Pakistani team for money.
“If I had any money related issues, I wouldn’t have left the team, but I did,” said Miandad.
