Notably, in modern society, it is not seen in high regard if you marry your own cousin, but in some countries, it is a common norm and Pakistan is one of those nations.
Interestingly, it is not the first time that a Pakistan cricketer will marry his cousin sister, or relative as there are many players who have earlier got married to someone in their family.
Here we take a look at Pakistan cricketers who got engaged or married to their cousin sisters:
Shahid Afridi- Nadia
Babar Azam
Mosaddek Hossain – Sharmin Samira Usha
Mustafizur Rahman – Samia Parvin
Apart from Pakistani cricketers, there are some Bangladeshi cricketers who have also married their cousin sisters and Mustafizur is one of them. Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur got married to his maternal cousin, Samia Parvin, who is a psychology student at Dhaka University. The couple tied the knot after the 2019 World Cup.
