DUBAI: Star all-rounder and former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi announced Darren Sammy as the new captain of Peshawar Zalmi during the PSL Draft 2016 in Dubai on Wednesday.
On the occasion, Afridi took the stage for a short while to make two quick announcements; the Pakistani batting great Younis Khan was assigned the task of batting coach and mentoring the team, while the former captain of Peshawar Zalmi Shahid Afridi passed on the captaincy to West Indian Darren Sammy.
“Your board didn’t give you respect, but I know how to respect the champion,” Afridi told Sammy.
