Former Pakistan player Shahid Afridi has recently blessed with a baby girl on Friday. This is his fifth daughter with wife Nadia. The former Pakistan captain shared the news with the world on his Twitter account and received wishes from across the cricketing world and his fans as well.
However, he is looking for a name for the newborn baby and he wants everyone to help him naming his kids with the tradition of starting with the letter ‘A’. His four other daughters are named Aqsa, Ansha, Ajwa, and Asmara. He had shared the image of the newest member of his family in a lovely photo that had him posing with the baby in his hands along with his four daughters.
“The Almighty’s infinite blessings & mercy are upon me…already having been granted 4 wonderful daughters I have now been blessed with a 5th, Alhamdulillah. Sharing this good news with my well-wishers…” posted Afridi on Twitter.
