Guyana: Shahid Afridi has come back with a magnificent All around performance in Pakistan Team against West Indies. 

Afridi came to bat in crisis when Pakistan were 5 wickets down for 47 and smashed the balls all around and scored 76 runs from 56 balls with 6 fours and 5 sixes, which helped Pakistan team to reach a respectable targets of 224 in 50 overs.

Afridi makes history by taking 7 wickets for 12 runs vs West Indeis
In Bowling department Shahid Afridi set a record the best ever bowler to take 7 wickets for 12 runs  for Pakistan and second bowler in the world after Vaas of Sri Lanka who took 8 wickets by giving 9 runs.

Shahid Afridi has been dropped from Pakistani squad as he has been wicket less in last six one day matches, doubts were increasing whether he would perform in his come back match or not.

Afridi has been in and out from Pakistani team and his come back in the team has always been  crucial full of performance now question arises, whether Shahid Afridi will perform in such a manner? 

The answer is Yes but is limited to West Indies tour and for some sort of sure it may be in the bowling department only, because West Indian bouncy and fast wickets suit Afridi very much but as far as batting is concerned,  we may not see Afridi repeating his performance once again in a quick section, that is his batting style. 

With the Pakistani team exiting its main players like, Younas Khan, Muhammad Yousaf, Shoeb Malik and Kamran Malik, we will hope same case may not occur with Shahid Afridi as many of Pakistani Players want to see him play more cricket.
