Lahore Qalandars captain Shaheen Afridi is trending on Twitter following his brilliant match-winning performance against Peshawar Zalmi in Pakistan Super League 2022. From his brilliant yorker at the start to his acrobatic catch, Afridi was in form.
The Pakistan Super League (PSL) 7 is in full swing. We are already getting some mouth-watering fixtures. Last night, we got to see the charismatic Peshawar Zalmi side take on the red hot Lahore Qalandars. Led by Shaheen Shah Afridi, the Qalandars look to be determined to win the PSL cup this time around.
Fakhar Zaman set the tone with thrilling innings. Then, it was the captain as fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi took out Zazai with a yorker in the first over. Qalandars won the match easily, but it’s the catch by Afridi that has everyone talking on social media.

It is always difficult to follow in the footsteps of a legend, especially one that is Shahid Afridi. Not only, does Shaheen wear the iconic number 10 jersey, but also carries the surname to carry on the legacy. In fact, the young fast bowler is soon to be a son-in-law to ‘Boom Boom’ Afridi. That’s a lot to carry!
What do you think of Shaheen’s performance today, do the Lahore Qalandars have the game to win the PSL this time around? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
