Delighted that pacer Shaheen Afridi is in the same team in the ILT20 instead of facing him, Desert Vipers captain Colin Munro said the Pakistan pace spearhead brings invaluable experience. Shaheen, who leads Pakistan in T20 cricket, will share the new ball duties with compatriot Mohammed Amir for the Desert Vipers.
“It's always nice to see experienced players come and share their experiences with us,” Munro said in a press release.
Munro also expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to have Afridi by their side, highlighting his impact on and off the pitch.
“He's great in the bowling group and he and Mohammed Amir have worked really well with the new ball for us. So he's an excellent bowler and it's nice to have him in our team for a change rather than facing him ” he added. .
Besides Munro and Shaheen, the Desert Vipers also have newly appointed Sri Lanka captain Wanindu Hasaranga, England's Alex Hales and Sam Billings in the squad.
The Desert Vipers are in fifth place in the points table. They will next take on Dubai Capitals.
