Dale Steyn amazed by ‘special’ Shaheen Afridi

Former South African pacer, Dale Steyn, is amazed by Pakistan left-arm pacer, Shaheen Afridi’s use of his wrist while bowling his deadly inswing deliveries.

While commenting on a video of Shaheen dismissing Babar Azam during Sunday’s PSL match between Lahore Qalandars and Peshawar Zalmi, the legendary pacer admired the bend and flick in Shaheen’s wrist and advised young pacers to learn from him.

“Shaheen’s wrist is amazing. The bend & flick he has is so special and an area where many young fast bowlers could look to find their extra yard of pace they searching for,” Steyn tweeted.

“Few drills one could try, but if you’re over 25 I’m sorry but it may already be too late. Still worth a try,” he added.

In the aforementioned match, Shaheen was in his beast mode when he broke the bat of Mohammad Haris in the very first ball of the second innings. Then in the very next delivery, Haris was dismissed with a searing yorker for a duck.

Shaheen picked up a five-wicket haul to help his team register a 40 run-win over Zalmi.
