The news has sent shockwaves through the cricket world, as Afridi and Bumrah are fierce rivals on the international stage. However, the opportunity to play together in a T20 league has proved too tempting for the duo.

The combination of Afridi and Bumrah is likely to be a formidable one. Afridi will provide the pace and aggression, while Bumrah will provide the control and accuracy. Together, they could form one of the best bowling attacks in the world.
The T20 league is scheduled to start in March 2023. The tournament will feature some of the biggest names in world cricket, including Virat Kohli, Babar Azam, and Rashid Khan.
