Afridi returns home from the UAE

Afridi

the Pakistan allrounder, has returned home to be with his unwell little girl and will miss the fifth and last Odi against Sri Lanka in the Uae. He had likewise withdrawn from his agreement with South African establishment Knights a week ago for the same excuse for why.

Afridi was set to travel to Pakistan on Thursday, and has a two-month hole until his next global work - Pakistan have no restricted over cricket until the Asia Cup in February, emulated by World Twenty20 in March. Pcb affirmed in the early hours of Thursday that Afridi is "returning home because of his disease of his girl".

Pakistan have as of recently secured the five-match Odi arrangement 3-1, however Afridi has stayed off-colour with the ball, averaging 30.80 in the four amusements. He has played several cameos with the bat, however, with 34 off 12 balls and 30 off 15 in the first and second Odi separately.

With Pakistan having unassailable arrangement lead, his prohibition won't harm Pakistan excessively, and will permit the group administration to test its seat quality. Anwar Ali is the strongest hopeful to supplant Afridi. The Pcb hasn't advertised any supplanting for him, choosing to stay with the remaining squad.
