Pakistan’s Shaheen Shah Afridi claimed his 100th Test wicket on his return from injury in the opener against Sri Lanka in Galle on Sunday.
Shaheen, a quick left-arm striker, struck in his second over to send back Nishan Madushka trapped behind for four after Sri Lanka elected to bat first at the start of the two-match series.
The pace spearhead had moved to 99 wickets in 25 Tests at the same venue last year when a knee injury sidelined him out of action.
Shaheen, 23, has taken 134 wickets in cue-ball matches since his international debut in 2018 and emerged as a star bowler for the team led by Babar Azam.
