Pakistan fast bowler Shaheen Afridi is set to tie knot with Shahid Afridi’s eldest daughter. The former Pakistan all-rounder took to Twitter and confirmed that the proposal sent by Shaheen’s family has been accepted by them.
"Shaheen's family approached my family for my daughter. Both families are in touch, matches are made in heaven, if Allah wills this match will be made too. My prayers are with Shaheen for his continued success on and off the field," Afridi said in his tweet.
Afridi is blessed with five daughters Aqsa, Ansha, Ajwa, Asmara, and Arwa.
The two cricketers were playing the Pakistan Super League (PSL) which was postponed for indefinite time with immediate effect after a rise in COVID-19 cases within the league.
The Pakistan Cricket Board did receive some criticism after the PSL was postponed. “Some players freely went outside of the bubble, whilst some people from outside came in and out of the bubble. What exactly was this bubble about?,” questioned Inzamam-ul-Haq.
"The medical panel should be punished and I request the higher authorities because they played with the lives of the people... All the blame has been put on Wasim Khan and he has been asked to face everything. Who has brought Wasim Khan? Ehsan Mani (brought him). Where is Mani Sahab? Is this the responsibility of Wasim Khan to answer here? Ehsan Mani should give the answer," Shoaib Akhtar said in a video.
Shaheen has played 15 Tests, 22 ODIs and 21 T20Is for Pakistan. He has picked 48 wickets in Test cricket while has 45 and 24 scalps in one day internationals and T20Is respectively.
