It will be impossible for Pakistan to find another all-rounder like Afridi quickly
TURBAT: I am a great lover of cricket and I have been watching cricket matches for a long time. I have seen many all-rounders in the history of cricket, but Shahid Afridi is my favourite player.
However, Afridi’s decision to call it a day in ODI cricket after the World Cup has disappointed me and also a large number of his fans. After his retirement, the Pakistan cricket team will face lots of problems because it is in no way easy to lose such an outstanding player like Afridi and then find a replacement of his calibre. It will be impossible for Pakistan to find another all-rounder like Afridi quickly.
