Ahmad Shahzad is conveniently reminding all of us of how ‘fit’ he is.
There has been a lot of speculation regarding exactly why their performance has been so phenomenally bad. And a lot of people seem to believe it’s because of how physically unfit the team clearly is and how undisciplined they seem to be in terms of taking care of their physical health especially during the days of the cricket world cup.
Videos and pictures of the team enjoying fast food right before the match went viral
People criticized the team for being so seemingly undisciplined with their diets and how they were using wasting their free time during the World Cup; treating it as a family vacation rather than a major sporting event.
Other cricketers, footballers and athletes before a performance: gym, healthy eating and practice.

And cricketing legends, most notably Shoaib Akhtar calling the team out.
Soon pictures of Shoaib Malik at a sheesha lounge at 2 AM allegedly a day before the match also leaked
Veena Malik even called out his wife Sania Mirza for not being more careful about her husband, who’s an athlete’s diet and the two got into a very nasty feud.
While Veena may have done it for attention, her questions do raise serious questions: where is the dietician? The coach? The captain of Pakistani cricket team? Who’s making sure the players are disciplined and keep their eyes on the prize because they clearly can’t be trusted on their own.
Veena,I hav not taken my kid to a sheesha place. Not that it’s any of your or the rest of the world’s business cause I think I care bout my son a lot more than anyone else does 🙂 secondly I am not Pakistan cricket team’s dietician nor am I their mother or principal or teacher https://t.co/R4lXSm794B

Virat Kohli sharing his intense fitness routine just added more fuel to the fire
While all of this conversation takes place, Pakistanis couldn’t help but notice the stark differences between the basic discipline the Indian team possesses in contrast to the Pakistani team. A lot of people referred to India’s captain Virat Kohli as being an athlete who one should strive to be like.
I was watching Virat’s interview and look what I found. Sarfraz really needs to work hard if wants to stay in this team. pic.twitter.com/QxEczAWtgv

And I suppose, Ahmad Shahzad took this as a cue to show off his own body
Life demands sacrifice on every step you take towards your goal!!
It’s you who have to decide whether you going to close ur eyes to it or take it as another challenge. 👊🏿Love the poem which Ali is listening in the back ground 😂😂
