Shahid Afridi lands into yet another legal battle

*ISLAMABAD - Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi’s autobiography the ‘Game Changer’ has been piling controversies with every passing day and now a petition has been filed in the Sindh High Court (SHC) to ban his book.*
As per media reports, Advocate Abdul Jaleel Khan has filed a petition in SHC for a ban on Afridi’s autobiography ‘Game Changer’. In his petition, the advocate has tabled the point of view that Afridi has resorted to using inappropriate words against senior players in the book.
The petition comes after Afridi shared his cricketing history in his autobiography, revealing he was aged 19 when he blasted onto the world stage with his record-breaking innings and not 16 as history suggests. “For the record, I was just 19, and not 16 like they claim,” he writes in ‘Game Changer’. “I was born in 1975. So, yes, the authorities stated my age incorrectly,” he added.
Earlier on Sunday, Afridi said that he did not intend ‘to hurt or offend anyone’ with his autobiography and just want to share his ‘life experiences.’
