No he's a troll!

Im doing nothing of the sorts, i just take any chance i can to express my hate for him, and how i think he is extremely over-rated and very arrogant, with no performances to back them up, apart from a few, which he lives off! :)

It's just a case of Afridi being not as picky about his helmet as some of us on this forum!

being picky is not my point, i just cant see why he changes it so often, he has been through 3 in the space of this world cup as pictured. If i was Ayrtek i would send him a lid, he would probably wear it once or twice every 8 games. In reality though i wouldnt want to associate my brand or myself with Afridi as he is a cheat and a liar. Never forgave him for the England tour in 2006 when there was a bomb alert and play was suspended, he took the opportunity to scuff up a good length with his size 10s, all downhill from there, ball biting was just funny.

I'll take the risk, he's over-rated, egotistical, selfish, not a team player, arrogant. Like KP, but so much worse. KP is actually good...

Oh and he's a cheat!

oh don't get me wrong, i despise the guy too. His celebration caps it off tbh, how you can have someone that self centred as captain i will never know

Quite a lot of Afridi hate on the thread. Mate don't post a thread on false pretenses if you want to bash Afridi don't need to make excuses.

Afridi did cheat but he never lied. Trying to ruff up the pitch in my opinion is not as strong an offense as claiming a catch which you know you dropped. And I would take Afridi any day in my ODI team over anyone else currently playing.

Saying that he has greatly underachieved given his talent.

You have been given a valid reason mate. He is not sponsored by Albion or Masuri as far as I know and I think he is not too picky about the helmet as long as it fits. Whys should he be consistent?

May I ask what those reasons are?

I only ask because hate is such a strong word to use. I'd hate a cricketer if he swore at my children at a county match. I'd hate him if he came back and robbed my house when I was at the theatre. I'd hate him if he hit a relative of mine with his car due to his negligence at the wheel.

Do you perhaps mean that you dislike him? I dislike lots of players. I dislike KP because he is an arrogant prat who would be twice the player if he lost half the ego. I dislike Mitchell Johnson because he was regularly the only player from both sides during the Ashes that was disrespectful in his demeanour.

I don't hate them though.

Once he's gone, that's perfect for me, he's a mug, and a joke of a captain. Terrible role model. I also feel he's a poor person as a whole, and I'd rather he didn't play international cricket because he makes a terrible impression on people!

What did Afridi do to you Tumo? Did an opposition bring him on as their overseas pro and you had to bowl to him  :D

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

He could be a world cup winning captain. He has the x factor. I would have never thought he would be the leading wicket taker in the cup.
