Kind of an unfair comparison. Although both are almost the same age (30,31), Afridi has had more International experience.

afridi has a higher average and a higher strike in odis and he didn't let 14 runs of the last over:P

First of all thanks for the stats Fawad bhai.
Albie seems to be a better batsman.
Afridi is a better bowler and for me a better fielder (can't forget that catch agains New Zealand).
So Afridi for me :afridi

going by the stats Afridi, but both can be devastating.
I would still say Afridi though, even though Albie is a lot more consistent...

i don't think albie is consistent ,he might be "consistent" in getting low scores as he has a lot og not outs but still a average of 22. morkel's hardly ever got a big score

if Afridi averages 36 then why is he not the senior batsmen in our test side?

because some people think that an average of 36 is not enough in test cricket.

Albie Morkel is extremely over-rated. His bowling is terrible and his batting rarely clicks against good bowling attacks. Afridi wins this with ease tbh.

correction: Because Afridi thinks he is not good enough to play Test cricket. He could be good in tests, if only he thought of tests as a real test of skills and temperament...

even if you give 37 free hits to sachin tendulkar he won't be able to break afridi's record,it's just out of the world.
