Shahid Afridi once again proved his potential as a great hitter of cricket ball while he played an absolutely cyclonic innings of 124 from just 60 balls against Bangladesh. His innings helped Pakistan to reach almost an outreached total of 385 from allocated 50 over.

Bangladesh, however, belied a complete lack of purpose in both innings, as the match meandered to the kind of denouement that has administrators concerned about the future of ODI cricket.
