Shahid Afridi turned back the clock with a sensational unbeaten 81-run knock off just 40 balls in Brampton Wolves’ 27-run win over Edmonton Royals in a Global T20 Canada encounter at the CAA Centre in Brampton on Sunday.

But that was not the only talking point of the game. An incident involving Afridi on the final ball of Brampton Wolves’ innings has gone viral on social media.  It was on the last ball of the innings when he smashed the ball straight to the long-off fielder.

Both the batsmen jogged for a single run. Meanwhile, Wahab Riaz asked whether he can turn for two runs, as the wicket doesn’t matter there. In reply, Shahid Afridi told Riaz ”Pagal Hey Kya? Bowling Kown Karega?”.

“Lala, dusra lena hai,” asked Wahab Riaz. “Pagal hai. Bowling kaun karega,” was Afridi’s reply.

Despite scoring most of his runs in boundaries — 11 fours and 5 sixes — the former Pakistan skipper was in no mood to make the extra effort of stealing another run, even on the last ball of their innings. Wolves’ ended with 207/5 which they defended successfully as they restricted Royals to 180/9.

Apart from playing an instrumental knock with the bat, Afridi also bowled brilliantly, picking one wicket for 14 runs in his four overs. He was adjudged the Man of the Match award for his all-round efforts.
