Quetta Gladiators captain Sarfaraz Ahmed has responded to Lahore Qalandars speedster Shaheen Afridi's respectful post for his senior after an on-field heated moment in a Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2021 match. 

Sarfaraz was furious after a bouncer by Shaheen hit him on the helmet and led to an argument between them. The lanky pacer posted a tweet after the incident and wrote that he should have stayed quiet on the field in respect of his senior, who he called the pride of Pakistan.

"Saifi bhai is the pride of all of us. He was and will always remain a captain for me. Whatever happened in the game that day was heat of the moment. I should have stayed quiet in respect of him. I have always respected my seniors and pray and wish the best for @SarfarazA_54 bhai," he wrote.

The 34-year-old has reacted to the heartfelt post and said it's all good between them. He added that Shaheen is the star of Pakistan and wished for his success in life.

"It’s all good bro. Whatever happened in the field it should stay in the field. You are the star of Pakistan too. May Allah give you more success in life. You are little brother to me .All is well ????????," he replied. 

The incident happened during the 19th over of Gladiators' innings when Shaheen's short delivery hit the helmet of Sarfaraz and the latter exchanged a few words while completing a single.

Umpire Aleem Dar called for a physio to check on the batsman while Lahore captain Sohail Akhtar and senior Mohammad Hafeez separated the two cricketers.
