#4 Shahid Afridi
A standout amongst the most extraordinary and engaging figures of the cricketing scene, Shahid Afridi has been around sufficiently long, to have added multitudinous teams to his CV.
With his colorful character being the motivation behind swarms of memes (Digital imitations of humorous nature), Afridi has a significant parallel picture as of the Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Sweden legendary footballer).
Already retired from the International circuit, Afridi has played for more than 15 teams. Some of which are mentioned below:
- Deccan Chargers
- Dhaka Gladiators
- Hampshire
- Karachi Dolphins
- Karachi Region Blues
- Kent
- Melbourne Renegades
- Northamptonshire
- Pakistan
- Pakistan A
- Peshawar Zalmi
- Ruhuna Royals
- South Australia
- St Kitts
- Karachi Kings
One of the few players, who have been known to be a pinch hitter at the number 3 batting position, Afridi has always been known for his aggressive nature to hit sixes. His ambition to hit sixes is so high, that he is currently the joint holder of hitting the highest amount of sixes in all formats, which is 476 alongside Chris Gayle, who is likely to break the record in the near future.

Among other cricket records, Afridi’s highest score is 164 and it came while he was playing Leicestershire county in England. Although, Afridi has been part of various controversies throughout his career, his personality is still admired globally but at the same time is regarded to be the most unpredictable player in cricket’s history.
