Ayaz Khan, the father of Shaheen Afridi, told media that he had sent the proposal to Shahid Afridi’s family for his son and it has been accepted.

They said that the engagement could be formalised shortly before the wedding in two years’ time.
The family has requested that the matter not be speculated on. Shahid Afridi will make a proper announcement when the time is right, they said.
