The latest entry in the list of experts is the legendary cricketer, Shahid Afridi, who has given a humorous reply to a fan on social media. In a Q&A session on Twitter a fan asked the 45-year-old Afridi to come out of his retirement and play for Pakistan as Shaheen is injured. 

Afridi humorously replied, "Mene us ko pehle b mana Kia tha k dive mat maray, injury hosakti hai, ap fast bowler ho. Lekin bad me mene realise Kia k wo b Afridi hi hai 🤣", which can be translated as "I had told him earlier not to dive, it could cause injury, you're a fast bowler. But later I realised that he is also a Afridi."
