Shahid Afridi, the former Pakistan captain, has returned to the Quetta Gladiators for the HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) season seven after recovering from Covid-19.

His rapid-antigen test came back negative, therefore he'll be eligible for the Quetta Gladiators' next encounter.

Afridi is representing Quetta Gladiators in what will be his farewell Pakistan Super League (PSL).

Quetta Gladiators is Afridi’s fourth team in the PSL after the former Pakistan captain played for Peshawar Zalmi (2016 and 2017), Karachi Kings (2018) and Multan Sultan (2019-21). The flamboyant batter got injured and as a result, had to pull out of the last season without finishing it.

Meanwhile, Gladiators management have announced that Englishmen James Vince and Jason Roy will be joining the team in the early hours of Wednesday.  Spinner Noor Ahmad will be joining the team after Afghanistan’s ICC U19 World Cup campaign.

It must be noted that Gladiators have played three matches, winning one and losing two games.
