Twitter Alert: Shock and awe at Captain Boom Boom's retirement

With the news about Pakistani cricket heartthrob breaking on the television, the local Twitterati reacted to news as per their own individual level of liking of Captain Boom Boom.

The commentary ranged from offering an eulogy on the cricketer's career, calling for Ijaz Butt’s head, even a PTI dharna against the ad hoc chairman. Most of them were supportive of Afridi.

1 guy who united the whole nation, 1 guy who took us out of our daily miseries, 1 guy loved by everyone and PCB you managed to **** this up!

Just saw this headline "Shahid Afridi announces international retirement"... so retirement has types as 'international' & possibly, 'local'?

3-2: Odds Afridi returns from retirement within 6 months.

I salute Afridi for standing against dictator of PCB Ejazz Butt, Lala, my respect for you will always be so high !!

RIP Afridi's magnificent, infuriating, scandalizing, unpredictable career. He showed it's possible to love and hate a person simultaneously
