Controversial Indian medium-pacer S Sreesanth has been blessed with a baby girl.

The proud father tweeted about his first-born child and informed that both the baby and mother are doing fine on Saturday.

"It's a girl," he tweeted first and then said, "Thanks a lot for all the wishes and prayers…my sweet and beautiful baby and my love her mother is fine...."

As congratulations kept pouring in from friends and well-wishers, Sreesanth again tweeted on Sunday, "Very pleased and so excited to let u all know that we are blessed with a baby angel on Mother’s day eve…gods grace."

Married to his longtime girlfriend from Jaipur, Bhuvneshwari, who hails from a royal family in Rajasthan, the 32-year-old has enjoyed marital bliss since 2013.

Banned for life for his alleged involvement in spot-fixing during the 2013 edition of Indian Premier League, Sreesanth has been out of cricketing action since.

The Kerala-born player has represented India in 27 Tests and 53 ODIs before a few stints with IPL franchises - Kings XI Punjab (2008-10), Kochi Tuskers (2011) and Rajasthan Royals (2013). He made his test debut in 2006 in a Test match against England.

Apart from a professional cricket career, Sreesanth has also pursued his passion of dance and appeared in the widely popular TV show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa.
