A video clip shared on Twitter showed Shaheen jaywalking towards the bowling crease and delivery the ball.

Shaheen injured his knee during the T20 World Cup final against England in November last year, the second time he endured it in 2022. Afridi had an episode on the field when he took a catch and landed heavily on his knee. He later returned to bowl the 16th over of the innings, but looked in discomfort as he delivered the first ball. After much deliberation, Shaheen walked off. It was later reported that Shaheen aggravated the injury that had kept him out of action during the first-half of the year, including the Asia Cup.

Shaheen is reportedly set to marry Afridi's daughter Ansha today, February 3, adding to a decent list of Pakistan cricketers to get married. After Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf and batter Shadab Khan had tied the knot with their respective partners in January, Shaheen, who got engaged to Afridi's second-born daughter Ansha, is in next in line.
