It’s quite a hard time for the Pakistani team as they have been constantly facing the wrath of the fans. It all started with the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019, where they lost comprehensively by 89 runs at Manchester against their arch-rivals India. Even in the home series against Sri Lanka, Sarfaraz Ahmed lost by 3-0. Needless to say that questions were raised on the competence and attitude of the entire team. Fakhar Zaman also came under the microscope faced criticism for his attitude. Azhar Ali Likely to Replace Sarfaraz Ahmed as Pakistan’s Test Skipper. 

The journalist in the video was heard saying that Zaman had become air-headed and the Pakistani cricketer refused to recognize him at the Dubai Airport. The senior journalist also went on to say that had a cricketer like Imran Khan handled the reins of the team, Zaman would not be a part of the dressing room. Now, these harsh words did not go down well with the star cricketer and he took to social media to slam the senior journalist.

However, after sharing the post, Zaman realised the choice of words and was quick enough to delete the same. First, check out the video of the journalist during the talk show:

The Pakistani team will soon be travelling to Australia for three-match T20 Series. The Men in Green will also play an equal number of Test series against the same team. Pakistani fans would surely want their cricketers to overcome the setback of the T20I home series against Sri Lanka.
