Shaheen Afridi Turns Down Lucrative Foreign T20 Offers to Focus on Pakistan’s T20I Captaincy
Shaheen Afridi has recently been appointed as the captain of Pakistan’s T20I team.
Pakistan speedster Shaheen Shah Afridi has opted out of foreign T20 leagues to concentrate on his role as the newly appointed captain of Pakistan’s T20 side.
As per a report of Inside Sport, Afridi has decided to terminate his existing three-year deal with Desert Vipers in the ILT20 league in Dubai and has turned down a fresh contract proposal from a team in the Big Bash League (BBL).
Afridi is slated to join Pakistan for a three-match Test series in Australia beginning December 14, followed by his captaincy debut with the T20 team in New Zealand in late January. Subsequently, Pakistan has a busy schedule of T20 matches leading up to the T20 World Cup 2024, co-hosted by the Caribbean and the USA.
