Shaheen Shah Afridi, the star bowler for Pakistan, will wed Ashna Afridi

 Shaheen Shah Afridi, the star bowler for Pakistan, will wed Ashna Afridi, the daughter of cricket legend Shahid Afridi, in a private ceremony. Shahid confirmed the information in an interview.


The all-rounder revealed that his daughter and the 22-year-old pacer would observe the Afridi tribal customs for their minimal nikkah. The Rukhsati and the reception will take place after the ceremony, which will take place in Karachi.



Following the nikkah, Shaheen will fly to Lahore to compete in the upcoming Pakistan Super League and re-join the Lahore Qalandar team. The bowler, who missed the England series due to injury, is now receiving treatment.


Shahid revealed the couple's engagement last year. The well-known athlete responded to the persistent rumours on Twitter. "Shaheen's family approached my family for my daughter."


He went on to add, "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." Soon after, the youngster expressed his gratitude to Shahid and penned, "Alhumdulillah. Thanks, Lala for your prayers. May Allah SWT make things easier for everyone. You are the pride of the entire nation."
