shahid afridi

Synonyms would be: Awesome, crazy, insane, cool, undependable, mad, talented, entertaining, mast, zabardast, superb, world champion...

Nickname is BOOM BOOM due to his flamboyant hitting of sixes & fours.

Fabulous cricketer who has led Pakistan to win the 2009 World Cup. Broken truckloads of records throughout his career. Extremely fun to watch.
His dad's the Pathan ruler of a certain tribe, and that makes Afridi a real life "prince" or "sahibzada."

He has stated that his favourite cricketers are Sachin Tendulkar and Imran Khan.

You can't really get the essence of this guy without watching him play. He's friggin awesome, and anyone would agree.

A massive hitter, often UNBELIEVABLE,

yet very very unreliable {you never know what he'll do}, religious ("All thanks is going to my Almighty God!" is a frequent statement of his. I've heard him say it whenever he gets any kind of award),

crazy, cool, and has OFTEN stated in interviews that, whether he plays amazingly or terribly, he can't control himself on the field.

Also known for striking fear into the hearts of Indians, toying with his fans' hearts by getting out very fast sometimes,

blowing a kiss to Jacques Kallis to piss him off,

biting a cricket ball,

dancing on the pitch, hitting the first 12 off 1 ball in the history of cricket, his amazing fielding, bowling, and batting, being in a number of Pepsi commercials, being handsome, etc.
