Pakistan pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi recently posted an endearing photo of his son, Ali Yar, who was born in August of this year.
In the Instagram post, the left-arm bowler is seen lovingly cradling his baby, capturing a tender moment between father and son. Accompanying the image is a poignant caption: “At peace.” This heartfelt sentiment resonates especially during his current time away from the cricket field after being released from the Pakistan squad for the Test series against England.
Earlier this month, the Pakistan Cricket Board announced that considering the form and fitness of key players, the selectors decided to rest Babar Azam, Naseem Shah, Sarfaraz Ahmed, and Shaheen Shah Afridi. Abrar Ahmed, who is recovering from dengue fever, was unavailable for selection. This decision followed the team’s disappointing performance in the first Test, which England won by a significant margin.
