Former Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi is still one of the most loved cricketers in the world. Recently, he shared a picture where his daughter posed with the lion.
Recently, the former Pakistan skipper posted two pictures on his social media account. One picture was where Afridi was feeding milk to a deer. In another picture, his daughter was in the pose of Afridi’s trademark celebration style and a lion was seen behind that little girl.
In that post, the former Pakistan skipper wrote, “Great to spend time with loved ones. Best feeling in the world to have my daughter copy my wicket-taking celebrations. And yes don’t forget to take care of animals, they too deserve our love and care :)”

38-year-old Shahid Afridi has recently announced his retirement from the international cricket after the T20I charity game between Windies and ICC World XI at Lord’s.
The right-handed attacking batsman and the leg-spinner Afridi played 27 Tests, 398 ODIs and 99 T20Is where he scored a total of 11,196 runs and also took a total of 541 wickets. Afridi played most number of international matches for Pakistan (518 matches) and also he is the most wicket taker in T20I cricket (98 wickets). Apart from those, he earned numerous records in the international cricket.
During the T20I charity game at Lord’s, where Windies won by 72 runs against ICC World XI, former English captain Nasser Hussain asked Afridi if he considers making another international comeback.
In reply, Afridi said with a smile, “No that’s it. You can see my situation with the injury.”
In that T20I game, Afridi received a guard of honour on which he said, “That’s something I’ll never forget. For that to happen at the home of cricket, it’s massive. The cause was everything tonight, and to have been able to help, it’s fantastic. Thanks to everyone who came out and supported this.”
