Pakistan left-arm fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi found himself in a bit of a tangle during Pakistan’s second T20I against the Mahmudullah-led Bangladesh on Saturday, November 20 at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka. The speedster, inadvertently, injured left-handed batter Afif Hossain Dhrubo while bowling his second over after the Tigers opted to bat first.

The incident happened in the third over of the match after Shaheen Shah Afridi got smashed for a maximum in the second ball. He went on to deliver the third ball and delivered a fuller length delivery and the batsman drove back and Afridi collected the ball in the follow-through and turned around and fired in a throw at the stumps.

Following an unfortunate incident during the match between Pakistan pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi and Bangladesh’s left-handed batter Afif Hossain, the two cleared the tension between them post-match.

During the second T20 match of the ongoing bilateral series between Pakistan and Bangladesh, Afridi unintentionally injured Hossain’s foot while attempting to hit the wicket to run him out.

In addition, he met him at the close of the match, after the Men in Green defeated the hosts by eight wickets.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) shared a video in which Afridi can be seen walking up to Hosain to offer an apology once more.
