Lala had been a force to reckon with on the field and ever since his retirement, he has been finding ways to occupy his time off the field. The man announced his retirement from international cricket last year, a decision that gave heavy weight to the saying, ‘time never stands still.’ The era of ‘Boom Boom Afridi,’ however, defies time – his spirit forever remains trenched in cricket soil.
Recently, Shahid Afridi has been found holidaying with his family in Dubai
And he’s been cooking up a storm in England, too
Guess, his daughters finally caused a much welcome about-turn in his misogynistic views about women and kitchens.
More recently, Lala took to Twitter to update his fans on his travels with a heartfelt message dedicated to his family
The honeyed snippet shows an adoring Shahid Afridi cycling around a charming, pleasant garden with his merry daughter perched on his shoulders.
The most important thing in the world is family and love, family love is above all the happiness one has – loved every bit of this ride pic.twitter.com/KRJHVlgOfw

If a person has family; he has every thing?
