The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) police announced the appointment of Pakistani star bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi as their goodwill ambassador. Inspector-General of Police KPK Moazzam Jah Ansari and other officials attended a ceremony that was also held in Shaheen Afridi’s honor.
He revealed, “My father has been representing the police and my brother is still in the police. Afridi thanked the police for their services to citizens in his remarks.
“Police officers and all security officials are the true heroes of our country. They deserve all the respect and honor,” added Afridi wearing a police officer’s uniform.
Afridi was named cricketer of the year by the ICC earlier this year for his flawless performance in 2021. Shaheen Afridi won the “Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy” as the ICC Men’s Cricketer of the Year after accumulating 78 wickets in 36 international matches at an average of 22.20 and posting his best bowling statistics of 6/51. The captain of Lahore Qalandar is the first Pakistani player to win the elusive accolade and is also the youngest cricketer to do so.
Shaheen has represented Pakistan in 24 Tests, 32 ODIs, and 40 T20Is since his debut in 2018.
