Pakistan's premium pacer, Shaheen Afridi, swiftly removed Hasan Mahmud for a duck with help from his teammate Mohammad Rizwan in the first Test between Pakistan and Bangladesh at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. 

Taking his first wicket of the game on Day 4, Shaheen Afridi couldn't hold any longer as he pulled out one of the most adorable celebrations in cricket. He folded his arms and cradled them, dedicating the wicket to his newborn baby boy, Aliyar.

His wife Ansha Afridi, daughter of the legendary PAK cricketer, Shahid Afridi, gave birth during the ripe hours of the game. Shaheen, who missed the birth of his child owing to his national duties, could clearly not contain his excitement as he celebrated joyously. 

In the 167th over of the game, Shaheen bowled a length ball that swung straight in at the stumps. Mahmud backed away, hoping to hit a cover drive. However, he got a thick outside edge, and the ball went straight to the wicketkeeper, Rizwan, behind him. After this wicket, Afridi, who missed the birth of his child owing to his national duties, celebrated the moment in his way.

Meanwhile, PAK trail by 117 runs.
