Shahid Afridi MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Shahid Afridi? Shahid Afridi is an ESFP personality type in MBTI, 6w7 - so/sx - 628 in Enneagram, in Big 5, SEE in Socionics.
Reading his autobiography, he is very difficult to distinguish from his friend Shoaib Akhtar. Both were passionate, driven and entertainingly controversial. They are both 7w8's, so you could easily mistake Afridi for an ESTP. However, at heart he seems to be less egotistical (unhealthy Ti) and more compassionate (aux-Fi) than Shoaib, as shown by his charity work. He's also quite impatient (tert-Te) and has explicitly said that he won't go into politics because he dislikes deceiving or lying to people. Because of PoLR-Fi, ESTP's have far fewer compunctions about doing such. I think he is so/sx/sp. His focus is much more community-oriented than Shoaib's (so), and Wasim Akram said that he'd take a bullet for you if he was loyal to you (sx>sp). Social 7's are the most 6-like of the 7's, and Afridi does have a few 6-ish traits, but overall he struggles to finish what he starts (like quitting the captaincy after one Test) more so than a 7w6 would in my opinion.
