Notably, Afridi has cultivated deep and enduring friendships with several Indian cricketing legends, including the likes of Harbhajan Singh, Yuvraj Singh, Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni.

Latest venture in the US Masters T10 League

During Afridi’s recent stint with the Warriors in the US Masters T10, he played under the leadership of his former national captain, Misbah-ul-Haq. In the tournament’s climactic final, Afridi had a brief but engaging innings, scoring just 1 run from 2 deliveries before being dismissed by Ehsan Adil. Ultimately, the Warriors managed to post a competitive total of 92 runs within their allotted 10 overs. The response was equally electrifying, with Mohammad Hafeez‘s explosive innings of 46 runs from just 17 balls helping the Chargers match the target. The thrilling contest culminated in a Super Over, where the Chargers emerged victorious, clinching the championship trophy.
