Pakistan left-arm pacer, Shaheen Shah Afridi, reached the milestone of 250 international wickets during the Group A match of Asia Cup against India in Kandy on Saturday.
The left-arm fast bowler's remarkable achievement makes him the 3rd Pakistani to join the ranks of legendary Pakistani bowlers Waqar Younis and Saqlain Mushtaq.
This feat also made him the 7th bowler overall to achieve this before turning 24. Shaheen's deadly combination of pace, accuracy, and swing has made him a nightmare for batsmen worldwide.
Shaheen also claimed a four-fer against India where he sent Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja back to the pavilion.
