Gautam Gambhir got blessed with his second daughter on June 21 and welcomed her in the family with a poetic tweet

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) skipper Gautam Gambhir welcomes ‘Little Angel’ into his family. The good news came on June 21, Gambhir became a father once again. Soon after Gambhir took to Twitter to inform the world, he tweeted a short poem, “An angel blessing our family, An angel brightening our lives, Welcome to the world, little angel!”. This is Gambhir’s second child since he married Natasha in October 2011. Though the name of the newborn daughter is yet to be decided by him. He named his first daughter Aazeen.

As soon as the news surfaced, tweets come pouring in as people congratulated Gambhir. A few players as well congratulated Gambhir on Twitter but Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan was the first one to do so. He was followed by his brother Yusuf Pathan.

Gambhir was recently suspended for four First-Class matches for his confrontation with Delhi’s Ranji Coach KP Bhaskar. Soon after his confrontation was termed as ‘inappropriate’ and ‘serious’ as Gambhir was found guilty of the charges against him.

Gambhir had a good Indian Premier League (IPL) 2017 season as well with KKR reaching the qualifiers of the tournament. Gambhir made a comeback in the team in 2016 but was ruled out due to injury. He did not get selected for ICC Champions Trophy 2017 squad as well despite his good form in IPL 2017.

Congratulations @GautamGambhir and @natashagambhir2 Bhabhi on the birth of your daughter. Blessings to the new born. #GodBless
