Anything can happen in the world of cricket, but this is too much of a filmy scene! Think about it, on hearing the name Shahid Afridi, only one picture comes to mind, but the twist is that this is not the same Shahid Afridi, whose sixes we all have seen. This is his namesake, a new Afridi, who had gone to Europe to show his talent.
The scene is such that our young Afridi ji is playing in the cricket league of Europe and his bat, in the middle of the game, splits into two pieces. I mean imagine, the guy is going to hit a shot and the bat says, “Bhai, I am gone!” And what’s more, he gets out on the same ball. I mean double dhamaka in one delivery!
The commentators also started thinking, “What happened? How did this happen? When did it happen?” And it was as if a meme fest started on social media. “My heart breaks more than Afridi’s bat every day,” such comments rained as if the monsoon session had started.
But tell me, who is this new Shahid Afridi? Yes, he was born on 15 January, 2000. Meaning he is young, energetic and is trying his best to do something new in cricket. He has played for Germany, MAC Frankfurt and Team Europe. He has come out with the dream of making a name in cricket, but perhaps the bat said, “Listen to me too!”
And PCB is playing its musical chairs of captaincy. Taking away captaincy from Shaheen Afridi, Babar Azam was made the captain again. Cricket fans are getting to see the next episode of a soap opera.
So friends, this was a unique story from today’s cricket world, where Afridi broke the bat, but won the hearts of the fans. For more such interesting updates, stay tuned with us. Because entertainment never ends in cricket, only the players keep changing
