Afridi aims to fight back

Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi has vowed to win back his place in the national team after being banned from a tournament in Sharjah in April.
"I will let my bat do all the talking now. I intend to use my time with Derbyshire to prove my critics wrong and win back my place in the team," Afridi said.
Pakistan cricket authorities banned the 21-year-old from next month's Sharjah Cup and fined him half his match fee against India for sledging Indian batsmen Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar and umpire David Shephard during a World Cup match.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) reported Afridi to the
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), accusing him of verbally abusing the players and Shephard in his native Urdu language.
But even before the incident, Afridi's place in the Pakistan team was in doubt after a string of recent failures.
"I know my performances have been a big let-down for my supporters and fans. I also accept the PCB decision. I think the time has come for me to change my approach to the game and be more responsible," Afridi said.
"And I think the time I spend with Derbyshire will be a learning process for me to evolve into a more responsible player, " he added.
Afridi is among several Pakistan players who have signed up by English counties for this summer's championship. Others include Shoaib Akhtar (Hampshire), Saqlain Mushtaq and Azhar Mehmood (Surrey) and Abdul Razzaq (Middlesex).
Pakistan cricket authorities are set to announce a new captain, coach and team this week for the Sharjah Cup, which will also be contested by South Africa and Sri Lanka.
Board sources said several players were being considered for the captaincy.
"Javed Miandad is a front-runner to take over as coach from Richard Pybus," a PCB source told Reuters, adding there were three candidates for captain, including wicketkeepers Rashid Latif and Moin Khan.
The Pakistan board and selectors have come under intense pressure to revamp the team after the country's miserable World Cup campaign in South Africa. There have also been calls to axe some senior players, including captain Waqar Younis.
Waqar and established players Wasim Akram, Saeed Anwar, Inzamamul Haq and Rashid Latif have said they had no plans to retire soon.
