Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan, in a recent interview, recalled how he silenced Shahid Afridi after the latter abused him on flight. "I said, 'Shahid Afridi has eaten dog meat, he has been barking for a long time' After that, Afridi couldn’t say anything," Irfan stated. "From this incident...he understood that he could not win against me verbally," Irfan added.
