Pakistan Test captain Shan Masood has addressed and dismissed rumors of a rift between him and pacer Shaheen Afridi, clarifying that a viral video showing Afridi shrugging off his hand was due to Afridi's shoulder injury. Masood also explained that his heated exchange with head coach Jason Gillespie was about the replacement of an older ball, not related to Afridi. Pakistan's recent 2-0 Test series loss to Bangladesh has added to the team's woes, with Masood becoming the first Pakistani captain to lose his first five Test matches. Despite the setbacks, Masood remains committed to his role, emphasizing unity within the team and focusing on future matches.
