Shoaib Malik shared a father-son moment on Instagram, just a day after posting a message for his son, Izhaan Mirza Malik, who recently performed Umrah.
Taking to Instagram, Shoaib revealed that he had made a light-hearted bet with Izhaan over a football match between Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad.
“If Al-Nassr wins, I’m doing 100 pushups, and if Al-Ittihad wins, Izzu is doing 50 crunches. The bet was on. Swipe to see who’s working out after the game,” Shoaib captioned the post.
The next clip showed Shoaib keeping his promise and doing pushups, while telling his son he had completed the task. Fans flooded the comments with laughter and appreciation for the adorable exchange.
The playful post came just a day after Shoaib penned a touching message for his son’s spiritual milestone.
“May Allah accept your Umrah, Izzu, and protect you always. Baba is super proud of you and sending you lots of love. See you soon,” he wrote, adding a heart emoji to express his affection.

Shoaib Malik shares Izhaan with Indian tennis star Sania Mirza. The former sports power couple tied the knot in 2010 in a high-profile cross-border wedding that attracted global attention.
Their son was born in October 2018 in Hyderabad, India.
After years of speculation about their relationship, Shoaib and Sania went their separate ways.
Before marrying Sania, Shoaib had also made headlines for a controversy involving Ayesha Siddiqui, which was resolved before his wedding to the tennis star.
