Profile
Shahid Afridi is one of the greatest entertainers in world cricket. ‘Boom Boom Afridi’, as he is widely known, follows a simple theory of either to hit out or get out, which makes him a crowd favourite. He started his career with a bang at the young age of 16, as he smashed 109 in his maiden innings off just 94 deliveries.Afridi is at his best when forcing straight and at his weakest pushing at the ball just outside off. He is capable of hitting almost any ball out of the park and is dangerous when in full flow.His carefree attitude has cost him a regular place in the side over the years. The all-rounder is also an excellent leg-spinner. Afridi was adjudged the Player of the Tournament at the World Twenty20 in 2007.
