Former Australian cricketer Ian Chappell recently criticized Pakistan cricket team after they were whitewashed 0-3 by Australia in the Test series, by saying that Cricket Australia(CA) should think twice before inviting Pakistan for another tour Down Under.
These comments have caused a huge backlash in Pakistan with Test skipper Misbah-ul-Haq slamming Chappell's remarks as “irresponsible and useless”. Now, after Pakistan beat Australia in the second ODI by 6 wickets to level the five-match series 1-1, star all-rounder Shahid Afridi has pounced on the opportunity to hit back at Chappell.
