Wade, who shattered Pakistan’s world cup title dreams, was a nightmare for Afridi after hitting the left-armer for three consecutive sixes in the semi-final of the 2021 global event. 

The wicket-keeper batsman will be making his first appearance in HBLPSL after getting picked by Karachi Kings in the platinum category during PSL Draft earlier this month.

Afridi added that dismissing KL Rahul and Virat Kohli have been his career-best moments so far.
