A flamboyant allrounder who was brought into
international cricket as a 16-year-old legspinner and surprised
everyone but himself by pinch-hitting the fastest one-day hundred in
his maiden innings. Shahid Afridi is a compulsive shot-maker. This
is exciting while it lasts but is too often his undoing. An Afridi
virtuoso is laced with fearless lofted drives and short-arm jabs
over midwicket. He is at his best when forcing straight and at his
weakest pushing at the ball just outside off. Afridi's legspinners
are underrated but he boasts a vicious faster ball, and his allround
skills are completed by agile fielding. His batting version of
Russian Roulette too easily allows Pakistan's selectors to drop him
when he is talented enough to be moulded into a world-class
allrounder. He also possesses the firmest handshake in international
cricket.
