I dont think so.......Hez one of a kind!....And not only us...I feel no other international cricketer of any country can ever come up with a show of such consistent hitting.....However there was an occasion when even Afridi was overshadowed.....Here is the link to that.....U guys wud have had to see that innings to believe it!!!

When Ijaz turned it on !!!

....Sachin Tendulkar, the only survivor from the October 1997 team, could probably remember what it had been like that evening at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore when Ijaz Ahmed – who would have been a natural as a woodcutter or axe-murderer – savaged India's water-pistol attack to the tune of 139 runs from just 84 balls as a fighting total of 216 was surpassed with a whopping 142 balls to spare. The other destroyer on that occasion was a familiar face, a free-stroking young man seemingly unencumbered by self-doubt or technique. Shahid Afridi smacked 47 from 23 balls that evening before leaving the stage to Ijaz, who pulverised whatever came his way. ....
