Ever since Pakistan's white-ball head coach Gary Kirsten accused Shaheen Afridi of misconduct and inappropriate behaviours, the former Pakistan T20I captain has become the main topic of discussion among cricket fans across social media.

In fact, many suggested to him how Hardik Pandya, one of India's stalwarts, maturely handled the situation when he had a rough patch while captaining Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024.

Babar-Shaheen Fight Compared With Rohit-Hardik Relationship

Notably, Hardik was, and still is, the front-runner for India’s next T20I captain. Yet, despite leading MI in IPL 2024, and keeping Rohit Sharma under his leadership, he had no problem with the veteran while playing for the country in the T20 World Cup.

Shaheen was in a similar situation, as Babar Azam played under him just a few months ago. Yet, he, unlike Hardik, did not allow himself to hurt his ego, leading him to fall under criticism.

Here’s how netizens have reacted after Shaheen Afridi drama:
