Javed Miandad lashes out at Ahmed Shehzad for talking more than batting

Out-of-favour Pakistani cricketer Ahmed Shehzad is representing Quetta Gladiators in the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL 2020) season. Meanwhile, the last time Shehzad played an international match for Pakistan was back in October 2019 against Sri Lanka. While the talented 28-year-old has scored just 61 runs in seven innings for the Quetta Gladiators this PSL 2020 season, Ahmed Shehzad does not seem to be doing himself any favours for earning a national call-up.
