The Indian all-rounder, Axar Patel got hitched to his fiancé Maha Patel in Vadodara on Thursday (January 26). The 29-year-old cricketer from Gujarat is not part of India’s limited-overs overs series, as the men in blue are hosting New Zealand these days. He played in the Sri Lanka series but, due to his wedding, opted out of the New Zealand series, the first leg of which India won comfortably by a margin of 3-0.
Neither the cricketer nor his wife has posted any pictures on social media from the wedding ceremony, however, numerous videos of the couple’s wedding functions have gone viral on social media.
