Nabi steps down as Afghanistan captain
After a sorry World Cup crusade, in which Afghanistan stayed winless (lost 3 and 2 wastes of time), Mohammad Nabi has chosen to step down as skipper with prompt impact. The 37-year-old all-rounder made the declaration through Twitter and furthermore communicated disappointment with the choice board of trustees for 'not being in total agreement'
"From the most recent one year, our group's planning was not to a level that a chief would need it or required for a major competition. Also, in a portion of the last visits, the group director, choice board of trustees, and I were not in total agreement, which had suggestions in the group balance," Nabi said.
Afghanistan lost their initial game to Britain at Perth, however retaliated splendidly in their last two games against Sri Lanka and Australia separately. Tragically, they are the main side in the opposition to have two no outcomes against their name. Their apparatuses against Ireland and New Zealand were both cleaned out, on account of the perpetual downpours in Melbourne last week.
"Our T20 World Cup venture reached a conclusion, with an outcome that not us or our allies were anticipating. We are however baffled as you seem to be with the result of matches," he referenced in the note.
In this way, with due regard, as of now, I report to step down as a skipper and will keep on playing for my nation when the administration and group need me," he further added.
