Shoaib Akhtar, popularly known as Rawalpindi Express, said that he was not fully fit to play all the matches. Akhtar turned down the offer of captaincy keeping team interest ahead of himself. Akhtar, who made his debut under Wasim Akram in 1997, played under several Pakistani captains during his career.

Bad management of the board -:

Shoaib Akhtar said, ‘I was not fit to play all the matches. I could play three out of five matches, I was offered the captaincy in 2002, but then if I had played all the matches, I would have played only for a year or two. I have been supportive of my teammates, but the board was very temporary. Management was not right across the board, Pakistan was also facing bad management at that time.’
