Legendary Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi has supported veteran Indian batter Rohit Sharma's statement on both countries playing Test cricket against each other. 

Recently, Indian captain Rohit Sharma reckoned that the arch-rivals should resume playing Tests against each other, a move that could improve their relationship and help them evolve as cricketing nations. 

Following Rohit's remark on the Club Prairie Fire podcast, Afridi shared his opinion on the matter. Speaking to Samaa TV, the famed cricketer stated that such a move could help both countries rebuild their friendship. 

He also hailed Rohit for his positive stand on such a politically controversial topic, calling him a brand ambassador of India. 

"Bilkul bahut acha jawab hai, hona bhi yahi chahiye (very good answer, the series should happen). A positive statement from an Indian captain. He is also an ambassador of India," Afridi said. 

"We used to go to India and play cricket there. These things build relationship. Padosi hai padosiyo ka haq hota relationship jitna behtar ho utna acha hai (it's neighbours right to have a good relationship)," he added. 

Notably, India and Pakistan played a Test series for the last time in 2007. Since Pakistan was involved in the infamous Mumbai terror attack, India eventually cut off the bilateral cricketing ties with their neighbours.
