Dawid Malan could be forgiven for having other things on his mind when he went out to bat during the Hobart Ashes Test, as he became a father for the first time.
Malan’s wife Claire was expecting to have her hubby by her side for the birth, but baby daughter Summer Skye arrived six weeks early much to everyone’s surprise.
The news that Claire had gone into labour filtered through to the 34-year-old just before he was due to bat and the birth was underway while he was busy making 25 in the first innings.
