Afridi has advise for players after horrific defeat against New Zealand

Karachi: Former Pakistan captain and all-rounder Shahid Afridi shared his advise for the Test players after a disastrous defeat against New Zealand.

The 40-year-old labeled the results as ‘very poor’ and expressed disappointment on the team’s performance in the second Test after a good fight in the first Test at Mount Maunganui.

“Congratulations to NZ for becoming #1 Test team, great performance by Kane Williamson and team. Really disappointing to see the performance in 2nd Test after a good fight in 1st Test,” Afridi tweeted.

“The players need to apply talent and courage to survive in Test cricket. The results in NZ are very poor,” he added.
