Salman Butt slams Hafeez’s double standards on Mohammad Amir selection

Salman Butt slams Hafeez over Mohammad Amir controversy

In a fiery response to recent criticism from Mohammad Hafeez on former Pakistan captain Salman Butt, Salman slams Hafeez for what he called hypocrisy over Mohammad Amir’s selection. A quote card released by Khel Shel captures Butt’s reaction, where he questions Hafeez’s credibility and accuses him of selective morality.

"You couldn’t take the fitness test, and then you’re complaining to Adam Gilchrist—no one listened to me. For God’s sake, what are you trying to say?" said Salman Butt. "Now, when someone else picks Amir, it’s a sin. But when he picks himself, it’s permissible?"

This sharp rebuke follows a public clash of views between Hafeez and several former players over Amir's involvement in Pakistan cricket. Salman Butt’s comments appear to directly confront Hafeez's stance during his time as Director of Cricket, reigniting debates around redemption, selection, and past controversies.
