'Pakistan Can Surprise Any Team In The World, Rule Them Out At Your Peril'

By AFP News October 14, 2021 • 11:37 AM View: 1825

Shahid Afridi, the box office trailblazer of Pakistan white ball cricket, believes his "unpredictable" nation can summon the spirit of 2009 and win a second T20 World Cup.

Afridi was man of the match in a nail-biting seven-run semi-final win over South Africa in the tournament 12 years ago where he made 51. He then starred again in the eight-wicket rout of Sri Lanka in the final at Lord's where he smashed an undefeated 54.
