After leaving the IPL to be with his partner for the birth of their first child, the big-hitting opener left everyone gasping for air when he welcomed their baby daughter “Blush” into the world.
He posted a following message on Instagram: “We would like to welcome the arrival of our beautiful daughter ‘Blush’ to this world 2 hours ago, Thank God. #GoodHealth&Strength…”.
