Things became heated between South African batter Matthew Breetzke and Pakistan paceman Shaheen Shah Afridi in what is a crucial tri-series clash between the two sides at the National Stadium in Karachi. In a video surfaced on social media, Breetzke and Afridi were in each other's face before being separated by their respective teammates.
The incident occurred in the 28th over of the innings as Breetzke, who scored a century in the previous game against New Zealand in Lahore, clipped one on the onside. With the 26-year-old almost colliding with the left-arm speedster while running between the wickets, Afridi was not happy about it and went to have a chat with Breetzke.
Below is the video of the same:

Meanwhile, Shaheen Shah Afridi, who picked up three wickets against New Zealand during Saturday's fixture against New Zealand in Lahore, dismissed Tony de Zorzi (22) and Wiaan Mulder (2) to give the home side some respite. However, fifties from Temba Bavuma and Breetzke have already put the Proteas on track for an enormous total.
The Men in Green put on a substandard performance against New Zealand, conceding 330 runs in 50 overs and later lost by 78 runs. South Africa are also coming off a defeat against the Kiwis, who have already made to the final with two wins. Hence, the winner in Karachi on Sunday will reach the final.
