The confirmation from former national cricket team captain came hours after reports of Shaheen and his daughter’s engagement went viral on social media.
According to reports, Shahid Afridi’s family said that since Shaheen is playing cricket and Shahid Afridi’s daughter is still studying, the engagement has not yet been formally announced.
