Earlier, the Indian cricketer had explained the reason behind not sharing pictures and videos of the baby on social media. “No we have decided as a couple to not expose our child to social media before she has an understanding of what social media is and can make her own choice,” he had said in an interaction with his fans.

On the birth of their daughter, the couple had said in a statement, “While we will always ensure that you get all the content you need featuring us, we would request you to kindly not take or carry any content that has our child.”
