Shaheen Shah Afridi, whose magic first spell turned out to be a game-changer, said that he had worked hard on bringing the ball back into the right-handers, which paid rich dividends against India in their T20 World Cup opener. Pakistan beat India by 10 wickets to win their first game in the global event against the arch-rivals, with Shaheen claiming 3/31 and his victims were vice-captain Rohit Sharma, senior opener KL Rahul, and skipper Virat Kohli at the death.
However, it is his superb deliveries to Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul that are being talked about after Pakistan`s victory and he was deservingly awarded the `Player of the Match`. "It is the good wishes of my parents and all Pakistanis. Very happy with my performance. The plan was to bring the ball back in. I was just trying to swing it and I was just looking to give the team a breakthrough,` Shaheen said at the post-match presentation.
