According to a senior Pakistani journalist Saj Sadiq, Shoaib called him 'unfit'. "When Sarfaraz Ahmed came for the toss, his stomach was sticking out and his face was so fat. He's the first captain I've seen who is so unfit. He's not able to move across and he's struggling with wicket-keeping," Sadiq tweeted. Team Pakistan will next lock horns against England at Trent Bridge on Monday. Despite the loss, Sarafraz Ahmed continues to remain positive and believes that the team will bounce back.
