Pakistan pacer Shaheen Afridi once again bagged a wicket in the first over during the fifth T20I against New Zealand at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium.
The 24-year-old shattered the stumps of Tom Blundell and took his 50th wicket in the first over of a T20 innings.
Shaheen is the first bowler to do this in this format. Behind him is India's Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who has 43 wickets.
