Ansha Afridi, who just wed young bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi, received a touching letter from her father, former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi, on Saturday.
The ace pacer and Ansha's Nikah ceremony took place a day earlier in a nearby Karachi mosque. The bride's Rukhsati, however, will happen later.
The cricketers Babar Azam, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Naseem Shah, and Shadab Khan, as well as squash star Jahangir Khan, attended a reception that followed the Nikah.
Afridi shared a heartfelt message for his daughter on Twitter.
"Your daughter is the most lovely flower in the yard because she receives so much blessing. A daughter is someone you can dream with, laugh with, and love unconditionally "He composed.
The former star congratulated the newlyweds and claimed to have given Shaheen his daughter in Nikah.
Two years ago, the couple were engaged.
The left-armer said during an interview on the Geo News programme "Aik Din Geo Kai Sath" that he wanted to wed Afridi's daughter.
Shaheen blushed throughout the interview and stated, "It was my wish and Alhamdulillah [thanks to Allah Almighty] it has accomplished today.
When asked if he felt envious of his female admirers, cricket player Ansha, 22, responded: "I'm not sure, but perhaps she senses something similar.
The young pacer was questioned by the host if getting engaged so quickly had offended his many female followers. He said, "I found my heart and that's enough for me."
