Pakistan cricket coach Waqar Younis has come down hard at beleaguered Shahid Afridi, allegedly saying the ex-captain is immature and has a destabilising effect.
In a tour report published in the Daily Dawn newspaper, Waqar said Afridi's "volatile and immature nature" during the series against the West Indies was the prime reason behind Pakistan's two defeats in the series.
Mincing no words, Waqar said Afridi "behaved very inappropriately and walked out of the team meetings" held before the fourth and the fifth ODI, causing defeats in both even as Pakistan went on to win the series 3-2.
The PCB removed Afridi as captain after the series, suspended his central contract and revoked No Objection Certificates that would have allowed him to play for other teams.
Afridi was set to play for Hamphire and was in England for the same but he was forced to make a return as the Board refused to grant him a certificate.
The sacked skipper has already declared that he will not take part in the disciplinary committee hearing since he feels the PCB is being unfair to his cause.
Paskistan fans say the Board is carrying out some sort of an agenda against the maverick player and they came out in large numbers to receive Afridi, who landed in Karachi on Monday night from Hamphire.
