There isn’t a limited overs team that would not have Afridi in it. Such is the magic and charisma of this ever so young player that he can win any match from any situation both with the bat and the ball. A fearless batsman who has the world record of Most Sixes and is currently the 4th highest wicket-taker in ODIs, Afridi is just ‘the’ thing you need in the IPL. In the T20 format, Shahid Afridi is Pakistan’s fourth highest run-scorer and the highest wicket-taker overall. Afridi as a batsman is the only one who has third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eight fastest half-century in ODIs and just on new year’s day 2014, Afridi’s record for the fastest ever ODI hundred was broken by Corey Anderson; a record he held for 18 long years. He may have taken his retirement from the ODIs but still there is a virtue in that; he can be available for the whole IPL season.

I don’t think there is anyone in this world who can argue on why Afridi shouldn’t play in the IPL?
