Many players want Afridi removed because he is ‘Honest’? (Majeed)

He said: “Boss I’m telling you, the timing you’ve come into. It’s perfect because the one days and Twenty20s are about to start and we’re going to be making a hell of a lot money.”

Incredibly, he said he could guarantee Pakistan would LOSE two one-dayers.

He explained many players want Test skipper Salman Butt to remain captain for all matches, but the Pakistanis have drafted in veteran Shahid Afridi to lead the side for the one day internationals and Twenty20 matches. Majeed said: “A lot of the boys want to f*** up Afridi because he’s trying to f*** up things for them.
“They all want Butt to be captain. They want to lose anyway.
“Let’s say for example Twenty20, I’ll tell you the bowlers, how many minimum runs they’re going to concede. And the batsmen. I’m going to tell you how many, like say it was on the two opening batsmen, Salman and Kamal, for example, you’ve only got twenty overs, they’re going to waste two overs, three overs.
“The Twenty20s are easiest. Then the bowlers as well, yeah, they will certainly give a certain amount of runs and they’re going to be batting as well and give their wickets. We’ll finalise a price for each one and we’ll just take it off the balance. We’ll take it off the 150 (grand) balance until we’re square.”
And he reassured: “Boss believe me, you are talking to the right people.”
