Pakistan women's cricket star Aliya Riaz marries commentator Ali Younis in a grand ceremony in Lahore, attended by cricketing icons and fellow players. The couple's union marks a new beginning in their lives, promising continued success and happiness.
Pakistan women’s cricket team all-rounder Aliya Riaz recently celebrated her marriage to commentator Ali Younis, the younger brother of former skipper Waqar Younis, in a lavish ceremony held in Lahore. The event took place at a private farmhouse and featured a special Qawwali night, attended by a host of cricketing legends and fellow female cricketers.
Notable guests at the wedding included Pakistan Captain Babar Azam, Azhar Ali, Mohammad Yousuf, Mushtaq Ahmed, Ramiz Raja, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Kamran Akmal, Misbah-ul-Haq, and Umar Akmal. The presence of prominent female cricketers such as Nida Dar, Anam Amin, Iram Javed, Bisma Mahroof, Sidra Amin, and Natalia Parvez added to the celebratory atmosphere.
Aliya Riaz, a standout performer in Pakistan's women's cricket team, has showcased her exceptional skills in 62 One Day Internationals and 83 T20 matches. Her talent has been on full display on the global stage, particularly during the 2018 ICC Women's World Twenty20 in the West Indies and the 2020 ICC Women's T20 World Cup in Australia.
On the other hand, Ali Younis, known for his insightful commentary and deep cricketing knowledge, has been a valuable addition to the sporting world. His recent involvement in the PSL 2024 commentary team further solidifies his position as a respected figure in cricketing circles.
The couple had previously announced their engagement in a ceremony earlier this month, marking the beginning of their journey together. As they embark on this new chapter in their lives, fans and well-wishers eagerly anticipate the continued success and happiness of Aliya Riaz and Ali Younis.
