Farhan's Shock Pick: Shehzad Over Tendulkar Stuns Cricket

Pakistani cricketer Sahibzada Farhan has ignited a firestorm on social media after a peculiar choice in a "this-or-that" questionnaire. Farhan selected former Pakistan opener Ahmed Shehzad over globally recognized legends like Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag, causing widespread astonishment within the cricketing community. His decision quickly went viral, drawing significant attention due to Shehzad's inconsistent international career compared to the unparalleled achievements of the players he was bypassed.

When questioned about his reasoning, Farhan stated, "Ahmed Shehzad is someone I used to follow. I was his fan and started my cricket after watching him." This explanation, however, did little to quell the controversy. Prominent former Pakistan cricketers Basit Ali and Kamran Akmal voiced their strong disbelief and even offered public apologies on behalf of Farhan.

Basit Ali adamantly declared the claim "fake" and pleaded for the topic to cease, questioning Farhan's sanity at the time of the selection. Kamran Akmal, struggling to contain his laughter, also joined in the apology for Farhan's perceived mistake. The selection was further amplified by the numerous other cricketing greats, including Rohit Sharma and Saeed Anwar, whom Farhan also overlooked in favor of Shehzad.
