Shaheen Afridi, wife Ansha pose with PSL 2023 trophy

Much to fans' excitement, a picture of Lahore Qalandars Captain Shaheen Shah Afridi and his wife, Ansha Afridi, with the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season eight trophy started circulating on Twitter which grabbed everyone's attention.

On Saturday, Lahore Qalandars became the first team to win back-to-back PSL titles on Saturday, beating Multan Sultans by one run in a thrilling final.

In the picture, both husband and wife can be seen posing with the PSL 8 trophy at the Gaddafi Stadium.

During the final match on Saturday, fans speculated that Shaheen was performing so well because of Ansha's presence but some netizens claimed that the pictures circulating on social media weren't of Ansha but her elder sister Aqsa Afridi. 

Fans confused Aqsa with Ansha as the two sisters have similar facial features after the former's picture from the stadium went viral on Twitter when she was seen cheering for Shaheen after he scored a number of boundaries.

On February 3, the star pacer Shaheen was solemnised with Ansha at a local mosque in Karachi after being engaged for two years.

A day earlier, during the final Shaheen took 4-51 after smashing a rapid 44 not out but had to effect a run out at the bowler's end as the Sultan's Khushdil Shah tried to make a third run to force a super over.

The Qalandars had scored 200-6 in their 20 overs before a packed 25,000 Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore and Sultans finished on 199-8.

The Qalandars had also defeated the Sultans in last year´s final.

Shaheen conceded 34 runs in his opening two overs as Sultans raced to 101-1 in 10 overs.
