Happy with PCB’s decision to retain Younis Khan as captain, his deputy Shahid Afridi said they had no difference of opinion.

Afridi also rubbished the media reports in the country which said there might be a difference of opinion between the all-rounder and Younis, who recently tendered his resignation protesting the match-fixing allegation made against the team.

"There has been lot of speculation in the media and some people are also trying to create differences between me and Younis," Afridi said.

"We get along well and I am happy that he is captain and I will continue to support him wholeheartedly. I play with my heart and soul for Pakistan at every given opportunity," Afridi added.

Younis tendered his resignation last week after being accused of match-fixing by the National Assembly Standing Committee on Sports but the PCB did not accept the same and made him skipper till 2011 World Cup.

In recent time there were lot of reports in media that highlighted the possibility that some players, including Afridi, were not happy with the attitude of Younis and did not want the PCB to continue him as captain.

"At the moment we have a one-day series against New Zealand, we have to concentrate on that. I am confident we can beat them although we lost the Champions trophy semifinal to them," Afridi added.
