Shaheen Afridi, the talented 23-year-old Pakistani bowler, has delivered a powerful warning to India as he showcased his skills in The Hundred tournament. Playing for the Welsh Fire, Afridi made a remarkable impact by picking back-to-back wickets with his first two balls.
In an impressive display of skill, Afridi first dismissed Phil Salt with a well-directed delivery that trapped him in front of the stumps for a duck. Continuing his fiery form, he followed it up with another searing yorker that led to Laurie Evans' dismissal for a golden duck, leaving the opposition stunned.
This outstanding performance comes at a crucial time as India and Pakistan are scheduled to face each other in less than a month in the Asia Cup 2023 on September 2 in Kandy. The anticipated continental showdown could potentially see the two teams meet once again in the same event on September 10.
