In the video, Shaheen Shah Afridi can be seen extending his congratulations to Jasprit Bumrah for the joyous news.

Bumrah, appreciative of the gesture, responded with a heartfelt "thank you." This heartwarming exchange took place following the India vs. Pakistan Super 4 match, which was unfortunately called off due to rain.

The 29-year-old Indian pacer, Jasprit Bumrah, had left the Indian camp in Sri Lanka a week earlier to be with his wife, Sanjana Ganesan, in Mumbai for the birth of their child. His absence was notably felt during India's game against Nepal the following Monday.

Bumrah shared the delightful news of his child's arrival on social media, expressing his joy and gratitude for this new chapter in their lives.
