Pakistan left-arm pacer Shaheen Afridi has bagged yet another record after he picked up his 200th international wicket against Australia on Tuesday in a one-off T20I game.

Shaheen Afridi put up a magnificent display of bowling yet again as he returned the figures of 2-21 from his four overs.

The left-arm pacer found the breakthrough as he removed Australia captain Aaron Finch, who was in terrific form and scored 55 off 45 delivers. Sean Abbott was Shaheen's other scalp.

With his two wickets, Shaheen Afridi has now become only the fourth Pakistan left-arm pacer to claim 200 or more international wickets after legendary Wasim Akram, Wahab Riaz, and Mohammad Amir.

Former Pakistan captain Akram has bagged 916 wickets across Tests and ODIs whereas Wahab Riaz has 237 wickets to his name.

Mohammad Amir is ranked third with 259 wickets while Shaheen Afridi has announced his arrival and sits on 201 wickets across all formats of the game.
