The rumour of Shahid Afridi’s daughter, Aqsa Afridi, getting engaged with Pakistani fast bowler Shaheen Afridi was making rounds on social media on the weekend. Fans assumed this might as well be a false rumour because Shahid Afridi’s eldest daughter is not yet old enough. Other than that, the families had made no announcements as yet.
Due to false assumptions and news going around on social media, Shahid Afridi cleared the air. The cricket star announced the news on a micro-blogging site that Shaheen’s family did approach him for his daughter Aqsa. However, nothing is confirmed as yet. He further added if Allah wills, this match will be made too.
Shaheen’s family approached my family for my daughter. Both families are in touch, matches are made in heaven if Allah wills this match will be made too. My prayers are with Shaheen for his continued success on and off the field.

Many breathed a sigh after realizing that Lala isn’t off to marry his daughter so soon. Earlier on, a sports journalist, Ihtisham Ul Haq, also tweeted about the matter. He said in his tweet that he had taken permission from both the families to announce that the proposal has been accepted and the engagement ceremony will take place in the next 2 years following the completion of Aqsa’s education.
With permission from both families, I would like to clarify the engagement rumours between Shaheen Afridi and the daughter of Shahid Afridi. The proposal has been accepted; it is thought that a formal engagement will be done within 2 yrs, following the completion of her education.
