KARACHI:
Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi is set to play for Hampshire in the Friends Life 20 competition for a second straight season. Last season, Afridi hit a stunning 80 from 41 balls for Hampshire in their tied semi-final against Somerset, which 2010 champions Hampshire eventually lost on a one-over eliminator. “I am very pleased to be returning to Hampshire to complete some unfinished business,” said Afridi. “The semi-final loss is something that I aim to put right.”
