May God never give any team a player like Shaheen Afridi, crossed all limits in the Australia series!

New Delhi: There is a saying in cricket, ‘Catches win you matches’, which means that the match can be won by catching the catch. That is why fielding is considered the most important in this game. Because this is something over which any cricketer has complete control. Despite any player’s form being bad in bowling or batting, he can contribute to his team through excellent fielding if he wants. But this does not apply if there is a player like Shaheen Afridi. No team would want to include him after seeing his poor fielding. He crossed all limits in Adelaide against Australia.

Dropped two catches in Adelaide:
The entire Pakistan team is known for its poor fielding. An example of this was also seen in Adelaide. Pakistan’s legendary bowler Wasim Akram himself agreed to this and said during commentary that Pakistani fielders cannot be trusted. He only said that on the very next ball of Naseem Shah’s over, Shaheen dropped an easy catch of Matthew Short. He dropped two catches in the entire match.

Shaheen Afridi’s shameful record:

As soon as Shaheen dropped two catches in Adelaide, a shameful figure was added to his name. Actually, Shaheen has played a total of 55 matches in his ODI career so far. During this time, he was successful in catching 11 catches, while he dropped 13 catches. That is, Shaheen has dropped more catches than catching them. From this, one can guess how poorly he fields. In this way, he acts as an ‘enemy’ for his team.

However, Shaheen did not let much damage happen to the Pakistan team. He bowled 8 overs in the entire match and took 3 wickets for 26 runs. At the same time, Haris Rauf took the wicket of 5 batsmen. Due to the deadly bowling of both, Pakistan bowled out the entire Australian team for 163 runs.
