A New Star in the Afridi Family!


The cricketing world is buzzing with joy as fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi and his wife Ansha Afridi celebrate the arrival of their first child, a charming baby boy named Aliyaar Afridi. The exciting news was shared through the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) WhatsApp group on Saturday, instantly lighting up the cricketing community.

Currently playing in a Test match against Bangladesh, Shaheen is eagerly anticipating his reunion with his family in Karachi once the match concludes. Though his heart is with his newborn son, Shaheen is set to rejoin his team for the second Test in Pindi on August 30, balancing his dual roles as a father and a cricketer.

Aliyaar’s arrival is a particularly special moment for the Afridi family, as it also marks the beginning of Shahid Afridi's journey as a grandfather. The excitement within the Afridi household is palpable, with congratulatory messages flooding in from notable figures such as PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi and Olympic javelin champion Arshad Nadeem.

In a heartwarming gesture during the Bangladesh Test, Shaheen dedicated a wicket to his son by mimicking the act of rocking a baby—a touching tribute to his new role as a father.

Shaheen and Ansha's love story began with their wedding in Karachi in September 2023, followed by a glamorous reception in Islamabad attended by cricket stars like Babar Azam, Shadab Khan, Imam-ul-Haq, and Haris Rauf. Their journey started with a heartfelt nikkah in February 2023 at a local mosque in Karachi, surrounded by their closest family and friends.

Now, as the Afridi family welcomes baby Aliyaar, fans and fellow cricketers are celebrating this joyful milestone. The new addition promises to bring even more happiness to the already vibrant Afridi clan.

Flipping through TV channels in Pakistan can be fun but chaotic, with lots of family dramas, political stories, and talk shows. Amidst this, there's a new idea stirring things up: some channels have started to think that they should start showing LGBTQ content on TV. We can see a couple of dramas which are subtly throwing in hints of LGBTQ. However, should they be really doing this? Imagine this: in a country where even holding hands can cause a stir, are we ready to see LGBTQ stories on TV? Sure, diversity is great, but do we need to go that far?
