Ahmed Shehzad has also been involved in controversies during his career. Currently, Ahmed is not playing for the national team, but he has continued his career in domestic cricket. The cricketer is nowadays co-hosting the cricket show Harna Mana Hai.
Recently, Ahmed Shehzad appeared on Geo TV’s Ramzan special season of Harna Mana Hai. In the interview, he talked about the cricketers of the 1990s who, according to him, are responsible for cricket’s downfall.
Talking about it, Ahmed Shehzad said, “I would want to go back to the nineties if given a chance. It was the time when Imran Khan won the 1992 World Cup, but the cricketers of that era didn’t sustain his legacy. There was a lack of good leadership and honesty, and the success streak stopped. The remaining players from 1992 didn’t maintain the legacy. They didn’t play clean cricket, didn’t produce players and developed groupings and mutinies on the basis of personal likings and dislikings. They were great players but not good humans. They didn’t benefit cricket. The system failed during their era. Had they been great humans, they could have benefited Pakistani cricket. They did favouritism and nepotism, bringing their own children into cricket. They developed grudges against young players. If someone didn’t greet them, he would become their enemy.”
