Dubai (September 04, 2012): Star all rounder Shahid Khan Afridi will not be able to play in Pakistan’s two T20 matches against Australia due to an injury.
The No.4-ranked bowler in T20 Internationals hurt his left thumb while fielding off his own bowling in his side’s loss to Australia in the third and deciding one-day international in Sharjah on Monday night.
Former Test captain Afridi failed with the bat with scores of 0 and seven and took only one wicket in two ODIs against Australia in the just-completed series, missing game two with a sore back.
“His left thumb was wounded quite badly,” Pakistan team manager Naveed Akram Cheema said.
“The skin tore off and blood was oozing.
“He’s received two stitches. The doctors intend to examine the intensity of the wound, how far can it be healed.
“Shahid’s availability for the next match depends on the medical examination and expert views.
