Shaheen Shah Afridi, the Pakistan left-arm seamer, has insisted that he won’t lose his aggression as he would feel incomplete without it.
The 23-year-old is the men in green’s pace spearhead in all three formats and is consistently relied on to get early wickets.
He is currently playing in the two-Test series against Sri Lanka, where he picked up three early wickets on the opening day of the first Test in Galle.
“I’m a fast bowler so I cannot lose my aggression. I would feel incomplete without my aggression,” he was quoted as saying by respected journalist Saj Sadiq on Twitter.
Pakistan’s Test series against Sri Lanka will run until July 28.
