Pakistan's all-rounder Shahid Afridi will return to English cricket county Hampshire to lead T20 charge which begins against rivals Sussex at Hove on June 14, 2012, as Hampshire aim to reach finals day for third year in a row. Hampshire skipper Jimmy Adams said: "We have got Shahid Afridi back which is fantastic.
He is a world- class match-winner and we are hoping that maybe Neil McKenzie will be around." Hampshire were drawn with holders Surrey and runners-up Somerset in tough group B. In first match Glamorgan visit Rose Bowl on May 7.
