When Michael Clarke said he was wrapped around the finger of his little princess, he wasn't joking.
The former Australian cricket captain has posted the first photo of his newborn daughter, whose name is Kelsey Lee.
"Heaven! Kelsey Lee you are my angel," the 34-year-old captioned the picture of tiny fingers wrapped around his own and touching the hand of wife, Kyly Clarke.

Kyly, also 34, is yet to post a picture of the couple's first child. Instead, she has uploaded a shot of her other new baby, her candle range.
The couple welcomed their daughter on Tuesday morning. Despite being five weeks premature, both Kelsey and Kyly are well.
"Thanks to everyone for all your very kind messages," Michael wrote in a post on Wednesday.
"Mum and daughter have both been amazing. Our little princess has daddy wrapped around her finger."

Kyly posted the same picture to her own Instagram account, writing, "Thank you to everyone for all your very kind messages. Our little angel is just divine, such a superstar. One proud Mumma and Papa."
