WATCH: Shaheen brings out cradle celebartion after taking wicket in PAK vs BAN Test

Pakistan's star fast bowler, Shaheen Shah Afridi, who welcomed a baby boy earlier today, marked the occasion with a cradle celebration after taking a wicket in the ongoing first Test against Bangladesh.

Shaheen, who had been struggling to find his rhythm in the match, finally claimed his first wicket by getting Hasan Mahmud caught behind.

He bowled a length delivery on middle and leg, which Hasan attempted to hit over the mid-wicket area, but only managed to edge the ball. Rizwan dived to his right and completed the catch.

He celebrated the wicket with a cradle gesture to honour his newborn child.
