Greetings, slight changes needed in the personal life section : it's written "family of *seven* children, with *six* sons" but it's a family of *eight* children with *seven* sons, if you go by the source itself (The Guardian), where we read that "It seems that somewhere in Lahore, someone may really have bowled seven wides at *seven brothers* [...] "Yes, there are *seven of us*, including me," he confirms. "Kamran is number four, I am number five and Umar is number seven, the youngest. The others have all played cricket, but now they are in business. We also have one sister."

Also quite awkard to begin a sentence with "born to".

So I propose the following edit of the beginnning of the paragraph :

"He was born to Mohammad Akmal Siddique, "a very senior administrator in Pakistan cricket", in a family of eight children, with seven sons who all played cricket at some point but many went to business, and one daughter."

Thanks!
