WATCH: Shaheen Afridi posts first picture of his newborn son
Pakistan cricketer Shaheen Shah Afridi shared the first photo of his newborn son, Aliyaar, on Instagram along with a touching message.
Two days after Shaheen and his wife, Ansha Afridi, welcomed their first child, Shaheen posted the first picture of their baby boy. He wrote, “My heart is full and my life just got a whole lot better. 24/08/2024 will always be special to us. Welcome to the world my son, Aliyaar Afridi.”
Shaheen also thanked his wife, Ansha, calling her the ‘support system’ of their little family and appreciating her for enduring ‘all the pain and suffering’.
He expressed his gratitude for the kind wishes and prayers they have received and asked people to keep their family in their prayers.
Shaheen will rejoin the Test team before the second Test, which starts in Rawalpindi on August 30.
Shaheen and Ansha’s wedding took place in Karachi in September 2023, with their Valima reception held in Islamabad. The celebrations were attended by many cricket stars, including Babar Azam, Shadab Khan, Imam-ul-Haq, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah, Fakhar Zaman, and Mohammad Rizwan, who all sent their best wishes to the couple.
Shaheen married Ansha Afridi, the daughter of legendary all-rounder Shahid Afridi, in February 2023. Their nikkah ceremony was held at a mosque in Karachi with close family members.
