Afridi was taking part in his sixth season of PSL and was part of the Multan Sultans squad for the third consecutive season. He played four matches this season, picking up two wickets. He was left out of the starting line-up from Multan’s last match, which they lost to Quetta Gladiators by 22 runs.

Afridi, now 44-years old, has had a magnificent PSL career. He has won the trophy once with Peshawar Zalmi and was determined to help Multan Sultans to win their first ever PSL title in this year’s tournament. The tournament has now been postponed indefinitely and PCB will identify a window to hold the rest of the tournament.
