KARACHI: Pakistani cricketer Shan Masood, who tied the knot this month with his fiancé Nische Khan, hosted a reception for his valima on Friday. Shan got married on January 21 in Peshawar, but the valima reception was held in Karachi. The left-handed batter arrived at the event with his wife Nische, who belongs to Peshawar.

The event was attended by prominent personalities, including Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Management Committee Chairman Najam Sethi and former cricketers. Before the event, a photo shoot of the newly married couple was held at a villa. Earlier, the video from the Nikah ceremony also went viral on social media, where the bride and groom were seen exchanging rings.

 Apart from Shan, Pakistan pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi is also set to get married in February to Shahid Afridi's daughter Ansha Afridi. Last month, fast bowler Haris Rauf tied the knot with Muzna Masood Malik. Meanwhile, all-rounder Shadab Khan also got married to the national team's head coach Saqlain Mushtaq's daughter.
