“In no hurry to get married at the moment”: Shaheen Afridi

Shaheen Afridi

Pakistani pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi, who will become the son-in-law of the cricket legend Shahid Afridi, has said that he is in no hurry to get married.

In a recent interview, Shaheen Afridi said he would think about marriage in the future and is currently focusing on cricket.

When asked whether his female fans would be sorrowful after he ties the knot, Shaheen Afridi smiled and declined to illustrate.

Reports of the pacer’s engagement to Shahid Afridi’s eldest daughter earlier this year spread like wildfire on social media.

Earlier this year, Shahid Afridi was asked about the engagement of his daughter with the fast bowler, to which he replied that if ALLAH’s willing, the young bowler will be his son-in-law in the future.

Shahid said that his daughter wants to become a doctor and at present, it is not decided whether she will pursue further education in Pakistan or England.

The former captain also shared that Shaheen had no relationship with his daughter before the decision for engagement from both families.

“We Afridis have eight tribes, Shaheen and we belong to different tribes,” the former captain noted.

He further said that for the last two years, Shaheen’s parents had a strong desire that both families should turn companionships into a formal relationship.

Shaheen’s father Ayaz Khan had earlier confirmed that both families have longstanding connections and that Shahid’s family has accepted the proposal.
