Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi said on Thursday that he was hopeful of a quick recovery from injury in time for the World Twenty20 in Bangladesh next week after his exploits at the Asia Cup.

The 34-year-old hurt his groin during the recent one-day tournament, which concluded last week and was also held in Bangladesh. As a result he will not fly out with the team early Friday, and instead travel on Monday.

“I am recovering well and [will] hopefully play at least one warm-up match,” Afridi told reporters. He is set to miss Pakistan’s first warm-up match against New Zealand on Monday.
