Ahmed Shahzad hasn’t been performing well since quite some time now which is the reason he has been receiving a lot of backlash. He didn’t perform well in the Champion’s Trophy either and people as well as media isn’t happy about it. ย Javed Chaudhary, a popular political TV show host joined in the masses bashing Shahzad for his poor performance:

Cricket is only charm left in our country for people,so connecting sports with politics isn't really a good idea,or disgracing any player
