Shahid Afridi is likely to miss the charity match featuring the World XI and the West Indies on May 31 as the former Pakistan captain is yet to recover fully from a knee injury.
During the last edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL), Afridi was forced to be out of action due to the knee injury after helping his side Karachi Kings to three consecutive wins.
In his recent tweet, he updated his fans about the injury.
“Went to see my doctor in Dubai, the knee hasnt recovered fully yet. I’ll need another 3-4 weeks. Hoping to regain full fitness after that, keep praying for me,” he wrote.
