Bangladesh Cricketer Tamim Iqbal and his wife Ayesha Siddiqa have been blessed with a baby boy.

Ayesha gave birth to the baby boy at a hospital in Bangkok on early Sunday.

Tamim wrote in his Facebook page ‘Our little bundle of joy has arrived! By the Grace of Almighty, we’ve been blessed with a baby boy earlier this morning. Though both mom and son are doing fine, Doctors have kept the little one under observation for 24 hours. Please keep us in your prayers.’

Tamim is expected to return to Dhaka soon, in a bid to join Tigers camp ahead of the ICC World T20 in India.
