Wicketkeeper Sanju Samson: Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has reignited debate over umpiring standards in the Asia Cup 2025 after Fakhar Zaman’s contentious dismissal during the Super 4 clash against India on Sunday.

Speaking on a panel with Samaa TV, Afridi took a cheeky swipe at the officials, remarking, “They need to work in the IPL also.”

His comments came in the wake of criticism across Pakistan’s cricketing circles over the third-umpire decision that ended Fakhar’s promising innings.
