Afridi hints Sharjeel Khan’s inclusion in WT20 squad

DUBAI: The blistering inning of Islamabad United opener Sharjeel Khan has not  only won his team a Big Game, but also has won Pakistan Twenty20 (T20)skipper Shahid Khan Afridi’s heart and attention.

Afridi, while speaking to Ramiz Raja in post match ceremony, hinted Sharjeel Khan’s inclusion in Pakistan squad in hidden words.

While answering Ramiz’ question about today’s game and Sharjeel’s knock, Afridi said, “First of all I would like congratulate United for their outstanding performance and I wish good luck to both teams for the big final. Yeah, Sharjeel Khan is in a great nick, whenever he hit, he hit it perfectly, he has played a wonderful knock to knock us out of the game, and he will be rewarded for it.”

Ramiz Raja too has suggested that a guy with such a great talent and form must be picked for mega tournament ahead.

“He was so closed to get picked for Asia Cup T20 and WT20, but his fitness and fielding level did not let hims be there. However, after today’s knock, he may get back into eyes of selectors.”

“Sharjeel is such a sweet timer of the ball. He may technically be not that sound, but he has proved today that he can perform in big matches and against big teams, his today’s performance will take him back in selectors map, may be he get a nod from them, because there they can make required changes until March 8.”
