Pakistan’s star all-rounder Shahid Afridi has picked MS Dhoni as the coolest captain in world cricket and current skipper Virat Kohli as his favourite Indian cricketer.
During an interview with FOX Sports Asia, Afridi was asked a series of questions covering various topic ranging from the laziest Pakistani cricketer to his favourite innings.
The 38-year-old is known to speak straight from the heart and was at his entertaining best during the interview.
Afridi picked Dhoni as the coolest captain in world cricket, a statement he has made in previous interviews as well. His fondness of Kohli is well known with the current captain gifting him a jersey signed by the Indian team for the Shahid Afridi charity foundation.
Afridi also named mercurial batsman Umar Akmal as the ‘loudest’ player and the best dancer in the Pakistan team and selected the legendary Wasim Akram as the top leader of the side. The all-rounder picked batsman Sohaib Maqsood as the laziest player in the Pakistan team.
On a personal note, Afridi pointed to the ball-biting incident during the Perth ODI against Australia in 2010 as his most embarrassing moment and his match-winning knock of 141 against India in the 1999 Chennai Test as his finest.
