India’s veteran off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin can’t forget Boom Boom Shahid Afridi’s two sixes in Asia Cup 2014 even after nine years.
In March 2014, during an all-important match of the Asia Cup played in Bangladesh, Pakistan defeated India after a sensational match. Former captain of the Pakistan cricket team, Shahid Afridi, played an electrifying innings of 34 runs off 18 balls, grabbing victory away from India.
An X user reminded Ashwin of Shahid Afridi’s sixes and wrote that the two sixes are still remembered today.

Ashwin wrote that they were really good shots, Shahid Afridi was really the best ball striker.
