Shoaib Akhtar and Shahid Afridi have won many matches for Pakistan during their playing days. While one rattled the opposition with his aggressive pace, the other turned the match around with his destructive batting. Even though both were match-winners, there were also many reports that the two did not get along during their playing days. One of the instances was Akhtar claiming that it was due to Afridi that he was sent home from the Pakistani squad who were in South Africa for the ICC World T20 2007. Now, the pace icon has come forward and trolled the former Pakistani skipper and it can rightfully be said that he has indeed bowled a yorker.
'Jaldi out hoga tu bhi': Shoaib Akhtar
It so happened that during a video that was posted by Akhtar on his Youtube channel, the 'Rawalpindi Express' was seen asking a bunch of kids who they want to become when they grow up to which one of the kids said that he would love to become Shahid Afridi. However, the ex-speedster made fun of the kid by saying that 'Jaldi out hoga tu bhi'.
This was said with reference to the number of ducks that Afridi has registered in his cricketing career. He has registered 44 ducks in international cricket (30 in ODIs, eight in T20Is, six in T20Is). Surprisingly, the 2009 T20 World Cup winner holds 56 ducks in domestic first-class cricket.
Meanwhile, all the global sporting events have either been postponed or canceled due to the deadly COVID-19. The bilateral ODI series between India-South Africa and, Australia-New Zealand have been rescheduled at a later date. The semi-final and final matches of the ongoing edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) have been postponed while the IPL 2020 that was originally scheduled to get underway on March 29 has been indefinitely suspended as of now.
As per reports, the ICC T20 World Cup 2020 that is scheduled to be held in Australia in October-November might be canceled due to the global pandemic. A decision on this will be taken by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on June 10.
