This is such wonderful news. Congratulations to the proud parents! Wishing them all the joy in the world. May the little one grow up strong and bring them endless happiness. Now papa needs to take some wickets for Azlan!
Amazing news for a player we all love in India. He plays his heart out for Gujarat. Fatherhood will add a new dimension to his life. All the best, champion! Hope he continues his form against MI.
Lovely to see such personal joy amidst the high-pressure tournament. The name Azlan is beautiful. Wishing the family peace and health. It's nice when the IPL feels like a big family celebrating together.
Bahut bahut mubarak ho! This is the best kind of news. As a GT fan, I hope this brings him extra luck on the field. But family always comes first. Take all the time you need, Rashid.
Wonderful news. While we celebrate, I do hope the media and fans give the family their privacy. This is a personal moment, not just an extension of the cricket news cycle. Respectful congratulations are enough.
