•Shahid Afridi insists he will continue to exclude son-in-law Shaheen Afridi from his preferred Pakistani XI for the T20 World Cup.
•Shaheen made a strong comeback in the Super 8 clash against England with figures of 4/30, including dismissing Phil Salt on the first ball.
•Shahid had previously backed Shaheen's exclusion due to his struggles in the group stage, where he took only one wicket each against Netherlands, USA, and India.
•The senior Afridi explained his statements were deliberate to motivate Shaheen, stating, "Some people need to have their egos hurt."
•He added that he would bench Shaheen again to "keep that fire burning within him," believing it brings out the best in the pacer.
