ROTTERDAM: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced on Monday that star bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi will not play in either of Pakistan’s two one-day international (ODI) games against the Netherlands.
Shaheen Shah Afridi, the third-best ODI bowler in the world, will be unavailable for Pakistan’s opening two matches owing to a knee injury, according to a statement from the PCB.
The young pacer’s knee injury, which he sustained during the Test match against Sri Lanka last month, is now fully recovered.Babar Azam, the Pakistani captain in Shaheen’s absence, stated that this is a chance for young people to step forward and demonstrate their abilities.
