Rahane is currently playing first Test match against South Africa at Vizag.
India's Test vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane, who is currently playing a Test match against South Africa at Vizag, got delightful news on Saturday. He became a proud father after his wife Radhika Dhopavkar gave birth to a baby girl. Ajinkya had revealed the news of his wife's pregnancy in July.
Rahane got married to his childhood love Radhika in 2014. She has been with the Indian cricketer when he had nothing and was in his struggling days.
Wishes started pouring in for the 31-year-old on social media as soon as his fans and mates got the news.
Harbhajan Singh took to Twitter to congratulate him. He wrote, "Congratulations new daddy in town @ajinkyarahane88 hope Mum and lil princess ?? are doing well.. the fun part of life starts now ajju. #fatherhood."
Radhika had shared her picture last week before the due date. Her post was a message to all the pregnant mothers. "Being pregnant means being ready for extra care and extra attention from just about everyone. And the flood of information can only make things confusing," she wrote.
