Shaheen Afridi is just 9 wickets away from completing his 100 wickets in the World Test Championship.
The Pakistan team will play a two-match Test series against Bangladesh at home from August 21, the first match of which will be played at the Rawalpindi Stadium. In this Test series, all eyes will be on the performance of two star players of the Pakistani team, one of whom is Babar Azam and the other is fast bowler Shaheen Afridi. Both these players have not been seen performing well in the recent past, so Babar and Afridi would like to answer the critics through their performance.
