Shaheen Afridi’s acquisition adds a genuine match-winner to the Toronto Nationals’ roster. The Pakistan speedster brings a wealth of T20 experience, aiming to bolster his impressive career record.
Shaheen Afridi, a young left-arm fast bowler, has taken the cricketing world by storm with his express pace, lethal swing, and ability to pick up crucial wickets. He is one of the most threatening fast bowlers with the new ball.
The young fast bowler, however, didn’t have a great outing in the last few matches he played for Pakistan and will be looking for redemption in the Global T20 Canada.
