Awards and achievements:
- Fastest and the second fastest Century in ODI.
- Scoring second highest number of runs in an over in ODI (32).
- Most number sixes in ODI.
- Leading wicket taker in T20.
- Longest six in the history of ODI against Australia.
Key Points:
- His general style of batting is very hostile and attack oriented and has earned him the nickname "Boom Boom Afridi".
- his aggressive style increases his risk of getting out and he is one of the most inconsistent batsmen in cricket
- He infrequently sends down a bouncer to a batsman, which is very rare for a spin bowler.
- He bowls at a high speed for a spinner, resulting in lesser turn, and relying more on variations in speed.
