The Pakistan Cricket Board said that the national selectors never offered a vice captaincy role to their star pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024. Several reports claimed that Afridi was offered the role of vice captain when the Pakistan squad was announced for the T20 World Cup 2024, but the pacer rejected the proposal.

The T20 World Cup 2024 is all set to begin in June which will be jointly hosted by the USA and the West Indies.
