'Get well soon Lala' - Shaheen Shah Afridi wishes speedy recovery to his would-be father-in-law Shahid Afridi
Shahid Afridi, on Monday, revealed that he has been ruled out of PSL 2021.
Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has been ruled out of the remainder of the sixth edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) after suffering a back injury. It is a massive blow for his PSL franchise Multan Sultans considering that the all-rounder adds a lot of value and experience to the squad.
PSL 2021 is scheduled to commence in the first week of June in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The celebrated all-rounder was quite excited about the Abu Dhabi leg of PSL 2021 as he was undergoing hard training and practice sessions in Karachi. However, while training for the league, Shahid Afridi faced severe pain in his lower back.
A visit to the doctor resulted in him getting ruled out of the Pakistan Super League as he has been advised complete rest. The 44-year-old revealed the sad news of him pulling out of the tournament via his official Twitter handle.
The former skipper posted a picture from his visit to the hospital with the caption, “While training for the remainder of the HBL Pakistan Super League 6, I felt lower back pain and had to consult a doctor. Unfortunately, I have been advised to rest and can no longer accompany my team Multan Sultans for the Abu Dhabi leg. I am disappointed that I would be sitting out of the tournament, but my best wishes, support, and prayers are with the team to take the trophy.”
