The Buzz: Ajinkya Rahane welcomes first child

All the world’s cricketers walked into a bar. The LOLs, the chatter, and the occasional mini-brawls, they were endless. And the news cycle was never the same again! Welcome to ESPNcricinfo’s Social Buzz, your go-to destination for all the bantz, the jousts, and little bit of eavesdropping from the social media playground and beyond.

October 8

Yesterday, Ajinkya Rahane became the newest member of a rather ancient club – Rahane and his wife Radhika announced the birth of their baby girl on social media with a sweetly succinct post. Congratulations poured in, as did advice from more experienced players. Sachin Tendulkar had a few words on coming in at the end of day’s play.

Many Congratulations, Radhika and Ajinkya.
The joy of being parents to your first child is unparalleled. Soak it in! Enjoy playing the new role of a night watchman changing the diapers.
