Shaheen Afridi's Baby Boy: Shaheen Shah Afridi and wife Ansha Afridi have been blessed with a baby boy, and the Pakistan pacer was not present during the birth of his child, as he is currently on duty in the ongoing Test series against Bangladesh.
During the Day 4 of the first Test match against Bangladesh, Shaheen Shah Afridi managed to scalp Hasan Mahmud and just after dismissing the Bangladesh player, the left-arm fast bowler pulled-off a unique celebration dedicated to his newborn child.

Bangladesh Lead Pakistan By 94 Runs At The End Of Day 4
Bangladesh have completely turned the game around in a span of 2 days, as the Najmul Hossain Shanto-led side have registered their third-highest score in Test internationals, and further managed to dismiss Saim Ayub to put the hosts into deep trouble.
Pakistan ended Day 4 on 23/1 in 10 overs, and things are not looking bright for Shan Masood-led side, as a draw will further harm their chances of making into the World Test Championship 2025 Final.
It was a day that belonged to the batters, as first session produced a solitary wicket, followed by a wicketless second session. However, bowlers ended up having their say in the final session by scalping 5 wickets for 93 runs.
Abdullah Shafique and skipper Shan Masood will resume Day 5 for Pakistan, as Bangladesh need to dismiss the hosts inside the remaining overs to stand a chance of either winning by an innings, or chasing down the given target at that point of time.
The batting-friendly conditions of Rawalpindi do not offer much help to the bowlers but the first session will surely see some tightly-knitted battle between bat and ball, as early morning moisture on the pitch will cause some trouble to the batting pair of Pakistan.
