Pakistani pacer Shaheen Afridi stirred up a storm on social media with his recent comment dubbing teammate Mohammad Rizwan the “Bradman of T20 cricket.” While celebrating Rizwan’s achievement of reaching 3000 runs in T20 internationals, Afridi’s comparison to Sir Don Bradman triggered a wave of humor and ridicule.
Rizwan’s Milestone and Afridi’s Remark: Rizwan recently joined the elite club of batsmen who have scored 3000 runs in T20 internationals, making him only the second Pakistani player to achieve this feat after Babar Azam. However, Afridi’s comparison to Bradman, known for his extraordinary Test cricket records, left many scratching their heads.
The Social Media Backlash: Fans wasted no time in trolling Afridi for his remark, flooding social media with memes and jokes questioning the validity of the comparison. While Rizwan’s achievement is commendable, comparing him to the legendary Bradman seemed like a stretch to many cricket enthusiasts.
In Conclusion: Afridi’s attempt to laud Rizwan’s accomplishment may have backfired, but it certainly provided plenty of entertainment for cricket fans worldwide.
