New Delhi: Pakistan’s premium fast bowler, Shaheen Afridi took everyone by storm in the final over of the Pakistan Super League match against Peshawar Zalmi as the left-handed pacer smashed 23 runs in the final over to take the game into the super-over.

Peshawar Zalmi batting first, put up 158 runs on the board and the match went into the final over with the Lahore side needing 24 runs to win. Afridi hit 3 sixes and a boundary to take the match into the Super-over, where the Wahab Riaz-led Zalmi side successfully chased down 6 runs for the win, thanks to Shoaib Malik’s cool and calm composure.
