Wives and Girlfriends of Indian Cricket Players – World Cup 2015

It cannot get bigger and better than this! It’s India vs Australia at the semi-final match of ICC World Cup 2015 at Sydney Cricket Ground and the excitement and fervor among Indian fans has reached fever pitch! It’s too exciting – people have applied for mass leaves citing “patriotic” reasons to watch the match today (I have sent in mine too :P). Blue is everyone’s favorite color today, blue is the new pink for us girls, you see! I can’t wait to see how the defending champions play against the mighty Australians to enter into the finals on Sunday *keeping fingers crossed* Now, this post is not about the pitch details and swing conditions of the ball on SCG.  We have got equally interesting stuff – wives and girlfriends (short formed WAGs) of the Indian cricket players who are wielding the bat and spinning the ball at SCG.  It’s going to be a fun post! Let’s wish that lady luck does indeed shine on our all cricketers today 😛 Read on:

 

Wives and Girlfriends of Indian Cricket Players - World Cup 2015

Through tweets, vacations, and joint appearances, they have made it apparent that they are in love and have acknowledged their relationship openly – a welcome change from celebrities who tag their relationship as “just friends.” You can catch a glimpse or two of Anushka Sharma at SCG today because she is in Australia to cheer for Virat Kohli.  How cute is that! 😛

2.  Sakshi Dhoni (wife of MS Dhoni):

MS Dhoni has become the second most successful captain ever in cricketing history, queue-ing up just behind Ricky Ponting from Australia.  You might have seen Sakshi Dhoni always on the stands at IPL matches cheering on Dhoni; however, if you are wondering why she’s missing at these important matches, she just had a baby girl on February 6th.  By the way, I absolutely love Sakshi Dhoni’s bright lipsticks!

3.  Ayesha Mukherji (wife of Shikhar Dhawan):
