Zimbabwe vs Ireland: Who else would be such a father? Stunned cricket world!
Zimbabwe vs Ireland: No cricket ground, but who knew that a cameraman can cover a whole cricket match with a girl on his chest!
Harare: Play thinks. Play teaches. The game changes the perspective. Many pictures of friendship, brotherhood in the field have been seen many times around the world. But he may never see such a father again. Be it a cricket field, but a cameraman with a girl on his chest can cover an entire cricket match, who knew! Live streaming of a cricket match is practically a mahayagna. A match is live from different angles of the field. Video cameramen have to be always awake to capture different moments. It doesn't matter if it's an international match. During the live coverage of such a match, the cricket world saw a surprising father. That father's story may become history. Many fathers will tell their daughters that story. Next World Cup brought up the story of that other kind of father.
Venue Harare Cricket Stadium, Zimbabwe. It was the last international match of the T20 series against Ireland. Zimbabwe won the series at home. But a cameraman named Mfua Soko won the heart. In an important match, he stood behind the camera with his daughter on his chest. The girl is only a few months old. Father Sokoi handles all the responsibilities of the girl. Although a cameraman by profession, Soko did not leave his daughter close despite the responsibility of directing Zimbabwe's matches. The Zimbabwean match was captured on camera with a girl in a baby carrier stuck on her chest. In the picture that has surfaced on social media, it is seen that the daughter is sleeping soundly during the match telecast of father Soko. Such a scene has taken place in the heart of the cricket world.
That was the incident of January 15. Three days later, on January 18, Soko was again seen at the ground, covering an ODI match. Kenyan cricket journalist Carol Radul posted the picture on social media. With which the storm has blown. In his post, he wrote, 'No praise is enough for the aspect that the cameraman has shown at the Harare Stadium. His little girl was also secretly helping her father.
Some say this is a fan. Some a cameraman in Harare. I still just love the Daddy Duties.

A writer from South Africa, James Hall, also knows the Zimbabwean cameraman Soko personally. He said, 'Soko has brought up responsibility towards father and profession, both together. This is a great aspect. Something to never forget.'
