ISLAMABAD: The former Pakistani fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar has tied the knot with a 20-year-old girl from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Haripur district.
The 38-year-old former speedster and Rawalpindi Express married Rubab Mushtaq in a quiet Nikah ceremony in Haripur on Wednesday.
“The haq mahar has been kept at half a million rupees and Akhtar`s parents attended the simple nikah ceremony,” the media reports said.
Earlier this month, the former Pakistani cricketer had brushed aside media reports that he was getting married with a 17-year-old daughter of Haripur’s businessman, Mushtaq Khan.
