KARACHI: Former Pakistan captain Javed Miandad broke his silence on the allegations leveled against him by Shahid Afridi in his recently published book, by saying that he laughs at the accusations.

Afridi in his autobiography, Game Changer, called Miandad 'a small man', who didn’t let him practice before the side’s historic clash against India.

In a brief interaction with journalists, the legendary batsman said that the former Pakistan captain adopted an inappropriate behavior perhaps to boost the sale of his book.

"Afridi has changed. He is different from what he was before. If I have done injustice to anyone I apologise but he could have spoken about it earlier," said Miandad, who scored 8832 runs in 124 tests for Pakistan.

The former skipper said that Almighty Allah gave him respect and nation prays for him.

"Salahuddin Sallu is a witness of how I helped Afridi scoring century in Canada. Ask him who was guiding him," he said. "I can only laugh at the content of his book."

Miandad said that he gave all the money of royalties to charity unlike Afridi, who is making money from his recently released.
