'Family': Shaheen Afridi drops a picture with Babar Azam amid reports of verbal spat

NEW DELHI: Putting an end to all the speculations, star pacer Shaheen Afridi has posted a picture on social media platform with skipper Babar Azam after reports emerged of a heated verbal argument between the duo following Pakistan's last-ball defeat to Sri Lanka in a low-scoring thriller in the Asia Cup.

Shaheen on Tuesday posted an image on ‘X’, formerly Twitter, with a heart emoji captioning 'Family'.

According to reports, a heated exchange occurred between both players after Babar made a comment during the post-match presentation, saying, "Players are not playing responsibly."

In response to Babar's statement, Shaheen retorted, "At least appreciate those who bowled and batted well." To this, Babar replied, "I know who's performing well."

Reports also indicated that wicket-keeper batter Mohammad Rizwan intervened to defuse the dispute between the two star players.
