Shoaib Akhtar wants to adopt a baby

Interesting. A baby could help him turn away from his partying ways

Chandigarh, Nov 10 : Pakistani speedster Shoaib Akhtar is looking for a baby whom he wants to adopt.

Akhtar revealed this while paying a visit to a school for mentally challenged children in Chandigarh on Friday, a day after Pakistan won the second ODI match against India levelling the series 1-1.

“I don’t want to publicise this matter. I am looking for one (baby),” Akhtar said.

The controversial Pakistani player who has been in news for all the wrong reasons, be it doping charges or hitting his team mate with a bat, said that he has not yet decided whether to adopt a baby boy or girl.

“The time is right and I can give time to that kid whether a baby boy or baby girl. God willing my family and I want to support and look forward to adopting one child,” he added.

Akhtar has been doing charity work in areas like bone marrow banks and cancer awareness in Australia.

It was a special occasion for 120 children of the Chandigarh school, who sang songs from popular Hindi movies for the Rawalpindi Express.

Akhtar also played cricket with the children and few of them even managed some lusty blows against his ‘fast’ deliveries. (ANI)

Re: Shoaib Akhtar wants to adopt a baby

why not have a child the old fashion way? i mean he likes the act and it'll be his own (genetically speaking) child. all he needs to do is pick a girl; im sure pakistani girls would still make themselves available despite his past.

btw, if he does adopt; please oh please be smart enough to adopt a Pakistani baby (y'know gora chita and all :) )

It’s a bad idea to adopt a kid without a spouse. :mad:

Re: Shoaib Akhtar wants to adopt a baby

He knew he is a good bowler but he doesn't trust his genes so he does not want to spread them. Therefore, may not want his own child.
