[ad_1]
Returning from injury, Afridi struck in just his second over to dismiss Nishan Madushka after Sri Lanka won the toss and opted to bat first.
Incidentally, the 23-year-old Afridi reached 99 wickets in 25 Tests at the same venue last year before a knee injury sidelined him.
Since making his international debut in 2018, Afridi has emerged as a star bowler for the Babar Azam-led side, impressing with his bowling prowess in white-ball matches as well.
