Pakistan cricket star Shoaib Malik and Indian tennis player Sania Mirza have recently been blessed with their first child after about eight years of their marriage.
Earlier this year, Sania had said that their child would share surnames of both the parents from across the border. So, they have named the little angel Izhaan Mirza-Malik. His name means God’s gift, as the parents feel that he is.
The Indian player today shared first picture of her son on Instagram with a lovely caption. Both mother and son can be seen watching Shoaib Malik play cricket against New Zealand.
“So, it’s been 5 days since we came into this world – me as a mother and my little Izhaan as my son. We’ve even watched Baba play some cricket together since we’ve arrived,” she wrote.
“It truly is the biggest match or tournament achievement I’ve ever won or had, and there is no feeling or blessing that can be greater than this.”
