According to a senior Pakistani journalist Saj Sadiq, Shoaib called him 'unfit'. "When Sarfaraz Ahmed came for the toss, his stomach was sticking out and his face was so fat. He's the first captain I've seen who is so unfit. He's not able to move across and he's struggling with wicket-keeping," Sadiq tweeted.
Writing "Speechless" himself, Akhtar then tweeted: "Ok the match is over. Recollecting my thoughts and emotions. We have to back these boys, they are representing our nation. They need our support throughout the World Cup," he said.
"It's a disappointing performance of Team Pakistan, let's not disheart them more and back them up," Akhtar wrote in the third and final tweet.
With zero positives to speak about and a heavy heart, Sarfraz went on to face the media personnel but failed to control his emotions after Pakistan faced a humiliating batting collapses as Windies bundled them up for 105 in a matter of 21.4 overs.
Lastly, he said, “First we have to back ourselves and not think too much about what happened today. That match is gone, so Inshallah we have the type of players who can win the next match for us,” and concluded.
