IND vs PAK: Shaheen Afridi injured against Nepal, doubt for Team India’s game.

Pakistan cricket team has suffered a big blow. Because there is a possibility of injury to their star fast bowler Shaheen Afridi. During the Pakistan vs Nepal match, Shaheen left the field after consulting the team doctor and physio. The left-arm fast bowler is crucial to Pakistan’s plans in the India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2023 match on 2 September.

In the first match of the Asia Cup 2023, Shaheen Afridi performed brilliantly against Nepal by taking two wickets in his very first over. He bowled 5 overs with 2/27. But when he felt uncomfortable while fielding, the doctor advised him to go out of the field.

The temperature in Multan rising above 38 degrees Celsius could be a cause of discomfort. With the clash against India three days later, Pakistan did not want to face any difficulties because of this Shaheen was immediately sent back to the dressing room.

Shaheen Afridi creates problems for players like Rohit Sharma during matches. His inswinging balls have troubled the Indian batsmen. In such a situation, the Indian team will be careful with the Pakistani bowlers during the game.

Shaheen Afridi missed the Asia Cup 2022 due to a knee injury. He could only bowl 2.1 overs in the T20 World Cup 2022 final against England. But Asia Cup 2023 is an important tournament before World Cup 2023, so Pakistan needs their star pacer to be 100% fit.
