Pakistan's sensational all-rounder Shahid Afridi's Twenty20 World Cup jersey will soon be displayed at the historic Lord's Museum in London.

 

MCC has requested him to donate his shirt for display. The all-rounder was instrumental in Pakistan's T20 World Cup victory in England as he was adjudged Man-of-the-Match in both the semi-final and final of the event last month.

 

"The MCC recently contacted me and requested to send the shirt to them which I will do shortly. But it is a big honour for me and my country to have the shirt displayed at such an historic museum," Afridi said.

 

The Lord's Museum displays kits of some of the greatest names in world cricket including legendary Australian Donald Bradman, Victor Trumper, Shane Warne, Jack Hobbs.

 

The museum, established in 1883, also houses the famed 'Ashes' urn that set off one of the most famous cricket battles between England and Australia.
