Shoaib Akhtar joyously shared the news of his third child's birth on Friday via his official Instagram page, posting a heartfelt photo holding his newborn daughter. In his caption, he expressed gratitude to Allah for the blessing of their daughter, Nooreh Ali Akhtar, joining their family, alongside her elder brothers, Mikael and Mujaddid.

Becoming parents is a profound joy for any couple, and recently, both Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma welcomed their second child, a son named Akaay, on February 15th. Similarly, Kane Williamson, the former captain of New Zealand’s cricket team, and his wife Sara Rahim were blessed with a baby girl named Lakshmi not long after. Joining them in this journey of parenthood, former Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar, affectionately known as the ‘Rawal Pindi Express’ in cricketing circles, celebrated the arrival of his third child at the age of 48.
