Footage: Afridi remember his Lord’s T20 heroics
Pakistan veteran all-rounder Shahid Afridi has been in the news lately for speaking his mind about the ODI captaincy, but before he was a rabble rouser, he was Pakistan’s star player.
In 2009, Pakistan won the World Twenty20 in England, and Afridi was the star of the show in the final at Lord’s. Here he discusses that game, and what made it so special for him.
Heeeere’s Afridi!
