Just two days ago, there were rumours being spread about the death of Pakistani all-rounder Shahid Afridi’s youngest daughter on social media. Some media organisations and Twitter users went to the extent of sharing images of a child wrapped in a white cloth with rose petals on her, claiming that she was Afridi’s daughter.
However, Afridi’s daughter Asmara, who was in a hospital to undergo surgery has recovered and is very much alive.

The 26-year-old left-arm pacer has represented Pakistan in all three formats of the game. In 22 test matches, he has picked up 71 wickets and also picked up 78 wickets in 52 ODIs. He also represented Pakistan in 9 T20Is and claimed 8 wickets.
Junaid made his international debut in 2011 against the West Indies at Gros Islet. He is currently out of the national side after playing his last international match against Sri Lanka at Colombo in 2015.
Junaid was part of the ongoing Pakistan Cricket Cup 2016 and represented Balochistan. His team has managed to win just one game from three matches played so far. Balochistan played their fourth game on Thursday which was against Islamabad and they were without the services of their key pacer.
