Shahid Afridi looked really pissed on the Afghan. The legendary all-rounder made some hand gestures while showing dismay towards the pacer. “Kya Hua [What Happened],” Afridi confronted the 21-year-old Afghanistan pacer. A Pakistani journalist also claimed that Afridi told Naveen: “Son I was scoring 100s in international cricket before you were born”.
