Captains should be announced atleast for 2 to 3 years: Shahid Afridi

Srinagar: Former Pakistan skipper Shahid Afridi has said that PCB should appoint captains on longterm basis.

“PCB should announce the captain for two to three years so that the captaincy debate can come to an end,” Afridi said while speaking to reporters during a Sports Academy project.

“There is no need to appoint anyone as vice-captain. If the captain is not available for any reason, assign the captaincy responsibility to a player who seems suitable,” he added.

Afridi came out in support of Mohammad Hafeez, suggesting that he should be given more time in his role as Pakistan’s team director.

“[Mohammad] Hafeez has played a lot of cricket; he should be given more time [as team director],” Afridi stated. “If someone thinks that everything will change in one series, it is wrong thinking.”

“We missed some opportunities during the New Zealand and Australia tours, failing to perform at our best level,” Afridi added.

“There should not be many changes to the squad before the World Cup. However, it is important to know when to rest or play a certain player,” he stated.
