Javed Afridi Signs 10-Year-Old Aina Wazir after her fast bowling video became popular on social media. The young cricketer belongs to North Waziristan in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Her performance impressed cricket fans across Pakistan.
Aina Wazir is the daughter of a martyr from Tehsil Shewa. She was seen bowling confidently in a local children’s cricket match. Despite her young age, she showed good speed and control while playing with boys.
The video quickly went viral online. Many people praised her talent and requested the Pakistan Cricket Board to support her development. Her skills surprised viewers and created hope for her future in cricket.
Peshawar Zalmi Chairman Javed Afridi also noticed her performance. He appreciated her talent in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter. He said such young players deserve proper platforms to grow.
He announced that Aina will be included in the Zalmi Women League. This league is designed to support and train young female cricketers. The initiative aims to help girls build careers in professional cricket.
Afridi also promised full cricket equipment and training support for Aina. He said she will get access to proper coaching and facilities. This support will help her improve her skills further.
The Zalmi Women League is part of efforts to promote women’s cricket in Pakistan. It focuses on creating equal opportunities for girls in sports. Programs like this encourage young talent from remote areas.
Aina’s story also highlights the lack of sports facilities in some regions. Many children have talent but do not get proper chances. Her selection gives hope to other young players across the country.
