"There will be a time when PSL leaves the IPL behind" : Shahid Afridi
Afridi was asked on a TV show about claims by Indian media and celebrities that his comments in relation to Kashmir were because he and other Pakistani players can't play in the IPL so this was his response.
Shahid Afridi "Even if they call me, I won't go to the IPL. My PSL is the biggest and there will be a time that it leaves the IPL behind. I am enjoying the PSL, I don't have any need for the IPL. I'm not interested in it and never was" #Cricket

And he's being truthful. I also believe that there will come a time where PSL leaves IPL behind.

Afridi was never interested in IPL!! Time to jog his memories
2011- https://sports.ndtv.com/ipl/allow-pa...afridi-1572720
Back then he was even counting the numbers of years Pak players had not played IPL!!
This was in 2016 - After PSL -1 https://in.news.yahoo.com/playing-ip...154004320.html

Where do the artcles say Afridi wants to play in the IPL? Point it out, I assume you have read the articles, or did you just copy and paste the first 2 articles Google spitted out?
READ the first paragraph
Swashbuckling batsman Shahid Afridi believes that playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) will help young Pakistani players improve themselves and help their national team regain some of their past glor
Afridi is consistent in his view, he DOES NOT want to play in the IPL.
Honestly, some of you do not read.

Not everything has to be measured. I believe it would be perceived by many as the better tournament. A tournament where the ballers actually have a say and where batsmen have to work really hard to get their runs against tough bowling line ups.
PSL is going to continue to get better as it transitions to more games at home, and thus attracts more crowds. Also consecutive successful PSL finals in Pakistan, World XI tour, and the West Indies tour and more forthcoming tours will convince more players to come to Pakistan.
PSL is a T20 tournament including players from the number 1 ranked T20 team in the world today. The quality of bowlers and youngsters coming through in the PSL I believe is what makes it the best T20 tournament in the world. It's more than just cricket, it's for a good cause, to bring cricket back home and I believe it's played with more passion than anywhere else.

Virat Kohli answered the questions maturely.
As for Raina, he is a Kashmiri himself so emotional tweet by him is okay

He played in 2008 (and was a disaster), registered for the auction in 2009 and in 2011 reminded everyone that Pakistan players have not played in IPL for 3 seasons.
"For three seasons, including the current one, we haven't been a part of the IPL. We have no problems playing in India as we have just played a World Cup semi-final there," Afridi told PTI."

The initial tweet by Afridi was not bad at all. Any good human being will care about life of innocent people. However not all that were killed were innocent. There were some 14 armed millitant who took up the weapon and chose their fate. In between the innocent people also die (I believe 4 civilians died), which is very upsetting.
I don't care about millitants being dead since they have chosen the path but dying of civilians is worrisome. However most killed were millitants and army soldiers.
The Kashmir issue can never be resolved by guns. It will just bring more dead bodies to Kashmiri families and Indian army men.
They must follow UN procedures for the resolution. Pakistan need to vacate its army from Pakistan occupied Kashmir including GB and then India need to remove its armed forces and keep minimal army to carry a voting.
Most Kashmiri sunni Muslims I have known and some of them I have taught as well, want a separate country. Shia and Gujjar people and Hindus want to stay with India.
However this not playing in IPL thing, Shahid bhai is getting too emotional. He should just leave it here with the original single tweet.

If you look at history, he oscillates between extremely positive about India and very negative. Recently there was a picture of him asking an Indian fan to hold the flag properly. Before that there was a comment on how Indians and Pakistanis share the same culture and then a comment about bigger hearts. Lala is a bit flaky like his cricket

It’s all your opinion. Not a fact. IMO IPL, BBL and CPL are way better than PSL in terms of quality.
Batsmen struggled to score runs doesn’t mean bowling was great.lol. Because batsmen were poor combined with slow pitches. Batsmen even struggled to scores against part timers like Sumit Patel.
IMHO there is a huge gap between the quality of batting between PSL and IPL. Bowling was nothing extraordinary. Comparable with IPL tho. Fielding was surprisingly better than previous years. Overall not a bad tournament.
But saying quality is better than IPL is not acceptable at all. Not even close.

Poor guy. He was probably dragged by the Indian Army and forcibly made to play in IPL1. No wonder he couldn't play well and did squat for his team.

Well, yes it is my opinion, and you have yours too. I guess it goes down to personal taste and which national team you support, since of course you will be more invested when you see your nation's favourite players and up and coming youngsters.
I feel with the PSL, the focus is on cricket and the players are passionate about the game. Because there is so much money involved in the IPL in my opinion players are more passionate about the money than the game.

I just did a quick calculation and pegged the figure at approx $4 mil - amount that Afridi has missed out on because of IPL's ban on pakistan players. Privately , he must have been seething with anger all these yrs for the lost moolah.

I seriously don't care if PSL becomes the greatest league known to mankind. It will not deter players from playing in various leagues in the world. Having the best league et all is just for chest thumping that's all. Players playing in these leagues don't care about anything but money. Indian and Pakistan fringe players will have more to gain from these leagues as they would like to impress their franchise as well as the selectors but the established players are here only for money. Whichever way you look at it. None of these players have any affiliation or connection to the franchise's they represent.

You guys have to get out of this mentality. For cricket to survive a strong Pakistan cricket establishment is necessary apart from other Asian blocs. We are happy if pakistan board gets richer and spends money on grassroots in Pakistan. But there has to be a reality check. Images of roofless stadiums suggest otherwise.

Roofless top you are talking about was becz stadium was under construction and as the roof wasnt completed in time for PSL final it looked like that. It wasnt like PCB didnt have money and workers left the work. Lol! Bro come on.

Good on you Afridi, but given the fact that you turn up to collect your paycheck plying your trade in every god-forsaken league like that Switzerland league or T10 which what should have been an abomination to cricket.
I highly doubt that you would say 'no' to IPL, where you might earn more in playing one season than playing a decade for PSL - but let's not get ahead of ourselves. When legends/potential legends like JOE ROOT, AMLA, Steve smith, Warner and PSL legends like luke ronchi, Ravi bopara, Kamran akmal are ignored what chances a player past his sell date like you have.
But, since we Indians have big heart just like yourself even with all it's clandestinity, we will play along and enounce
"Don't say so, you will be a big loss to IPL, champ. **"
**if considered for selection that is.

This guy I swear is bipolar. He wouldn't say no to an IPL contact and no the PSL is nowhere near as good (quality wise) to IPL.
