Pakistani youngster Shaheen Shah Afridi is the youngest player (19 years 9 days) to take a 5-wicket haul in the ICC World Cup history. He achieved the feat in the group stage match against Bangladesh at the iconic venue Lord’s on 5th July 2019.
Shaheen Afridi returned with 6/34 in 9.1 overs while defending the target of 319 runs. From the beginning, he was bowling really well and deceiving the batsmen.
