Biography

Asif Afridi, born on December 25, 1986, is a talented Pakistani cricketer known for his skills as a left-arm orthodox bowler and left-handed batter. He has made a name for himself in the domestic circuit, particularly playing for teams like Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) and Lahore Qalandars. Afridi's impressive performance in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy earned him recognition as a leading wicket-taker for FATA in both the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons.

Afridi's rise to prominence continued when he was named in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's squad for the 2020-21 Pakistan Cup, where he took a five-wicket haul in the final, earning him player of the match and bowler of the tournament honors. His impressive domestic performance led to him being named in Pakistan's One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International (T20I) squads for their series against Australia in March 2022. However, his career was temporarily halted due to a two-year ban imposed by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) in February 2023 for violating the anti-corruption code.

Despite the setback, Afridi has continued to play cricket, currently featuring for Newcastle City Cricket Club, where he has been instrumental in the team's success, becoming one of the top wicket-takers and guiding them to several finals. His experience and skills make him a valuable asset to any team.
