Afridi is one for fitness and take it really seriously so i hope not.
The guy was about to pick Sharjeel until he faced some public backlash for ignoring Fakhar. Also, Sarfraz and Haris are not the fittest blokes going around.

I don't think Afridi cares about fitness as much as you might think lol.

Slight correction: Afridi didn't select Sharjeel as he has Sethi expressed reservations over his PSL spot fixing.

Because for Afridi and Sethi, fixing for Pakistan is forgiveable but not for the PSL.

Sarfraz is a little older so has some knee issues along with Haris but at least both of them are semi fit. Sharjeel to be fair lost weight lol.

Azam Khan looks like Peter Griffin's double, it's pathetic that a young man should be that size that to one who is wealthy.

Rofl yeah I agree, he should definitely work on his fitness. Sharjeel wasted his entire career as a fat bum only to lose weight when he's in his mid-thirties smh. Azam needs to make sure he doesn't repeat the same mistake.

Well whoever Azam's fitness trainer he needs to fire his ass.

He needs proper MMA circuit training workouts.

Yaar bas karo. Lets hope Azam can lose some of the charvi for his own benefit.
If he ain't trying then i have no sympathy for tubby lumpkins, he's been "trying" to lose weight for i don't know how long. He's got all the time in the world and an 1 hr/1.5hrs a day in the gym won't hurt.

We are not far from the times when we will hear people say that "hey fitness does not matter" Azam should be picked regardless of his fitness. They will have one rule for Azam and totally different rule for players whose name is not Azam.

That was mostly because of his attitude / drinking problems, not his weight.
Good for you to point out that an an athlete's attitude should be considered as an important factor while considering him worthy for the national squad. Now we all (including you) have seen the results of what Azam's attitude towards fitness is, right?

Let's put this into perspective ...

The guy couldn't care less about his general health and is putting himself at extreme risk of diabeties, coronary heart conditions etc yet you want us to believe that same individual will have the relevent attitide required of a professional sportsman?

On a different note, what I feel, you fail to understand is bro, I'm all for Azam's inclusion based on his potential but against the precedent being set with his inclusion.

Fitness first and inclusion second - simple.
