Shaheen Afridi Wins Hearts By Showing A Lovely Gesture

Web Desk — Pakistani fast bowler Shaheen Afridi has won hearts of the cricket fans across the border by showing a lovely gesture. Shaheen met Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah and gave him a gift for his newborn baby boy.

Shaheen met Bumrah at Premadasa Cricket Stadium Colombo after the high-voltage Pakistan-India match was called off due to rain. Shaheen congratulated Bumrah and gave him a gift
for his newborn baby.

Pakistan Cricket Board wrote in a post on X: “Shaheen Afridi delivers smiles to new dad Jasprit Bumrah.” PCB also shared a video clip in which Shaheen can be seen giving a gift to Bumrah.

Jasprit Bumrah and his wife Sanjana Ganesan welcomed their son on September 4. The right-arm fast bowler had to go back home in the middle of the Asia Cup to be with his partner to welcome his firstborn.

Shaheen delivered the gift to the Indian pacer and said, “Congratulations, this is a small gift for the little prince. May Allah always keep him happy and he becomes the new Bumrah.”

Bumrah described the gesture as very sweet and in reply thanked and shook hands with Shaheen.
