Shaheen Afridi is arguably one of the best bowlers across formats. The left-arm seamer is excellent with the new ball and his record speaks for itself.

The talented seamer has been excellent for Pakistan in the recent tours, and will once again be tested against the visiting Bangladesh team in a two-match Test series.

The series is of utmost importance for the hosts, considering that they are still in the race for a place in the WTC finals. All eyes will be Shaheen when the two teams step out in Rawalpindi for the first Test match.

So, with the series fast approaching, let us look at his Test record against Bangladesh.

The table clearly shows that just like Babar Azam, who dominates Bangladesh bowlers, Shaheen has the upper hand against their batters. In 3 matches, he has scalped 15 wickets, with an economy of just 2.30.

Moreover, he has an average of 15.20, and also has a fifer against the Tigers. His spell at the top could potentialy decide the fate of the series. Also, the Rawalpindi deck will be a green top, which will assist the seamers, hence, benefitting Shaheen.

The first Test takes place in Rawalpindi, while the second game, which was to be held in Karachi, will also take place in Rawalpindi, due to construction work going around at the Karachi Stadium.
