Reflecting on all-rounder’s abilities, Lawson said that age was no limit to the penetration of his bowling or the power of his hitting, adding that he was expecting Afridi to have a big cup as it should be his last, the Dawn reported.

The former Australian pace man revealed in his column that under Misbah-ul-Haq’s leadership, Afridi had abandoned his own captaincy agenda and his concentration on purely playing continued to be valuable for the Pakistan team.

Earlier, Afridi had announced his decision to retire from the One-Day Internationals (ODI) after the ICC World Cup 2015.
