Pakistani left arm fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi recently tied the knot with Ansha Afridi, the daughter of former Pakistan captain Shahid Khan Afridi in February this year.

In a recent TV interview, Shaheen and Shahid Afridi seen together. During Interview Shahid Afridi pointed Shaheen and stated, ‘Sasur, tumhare muh se main dobara na sunu’ (I don’t want to hear the word sasur from you again).” Shaheen recalled his experience of bowling against Shahid in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) five years ago and said, “He is my role model. He has been the inspiration for me. He is like my friend.”
Remember that this year on 3rd Feb 2023, Shaheen Afridi officially ties the knot with Shahid Afridi’s Daughter in a Nikah ceremony while the ruskhati will take place after Ansha completes her studies.
Despite the lighter banter, Shaheen Afridi took inspiration from Shahid Afridi. With a spectacular last-ball victory over Multan Sultans in March, Shaheen Afridi pushed Lahore Qalandars to their second consecutive Pakistan Super League (PSL) title victory. He remained unbeaten on 44 runs in 15 balls, which included two fours and five maximums. He became the first captain to win consecutive PSL titles.
