In 1996, as a teenager, Shahid Afridi shot to fame after hammering the fastest ODI century at the time. Counted among the world's greatest all-rounders, Afridi still holds the distinction of having hit the most number of sixes in the history of ODI cricket.
In a career as unpredictable as his leg-break googlies and 'boom-boom' power hitting, Afridi has been many things - the lost kid focused on pulling his parents out of poverty, the desperate captain trying not to snitch on his corrupt teammates, the gallant Pashtun centurion staring down a hostile Indian crowd, and the bad boy at the centre of a ball-tampering scandal. In Game Changer, Afridi tells his life story just the way he batted - instinctively, candidly and with no holds barred.
The riveting memoir of one of modern cricket's most controversial and accomplished practitioners, this is a must-read not only for his legion of fans but also for anyone interested in world cricket.
