Indian pace bowler Shardul Thakur has entered the new chapter of his life as he got engaged to his long time girlfriend Mittali Parulkar in Mumbai on Monday, November 29.
However, Shardul has become a regular face of Team India, especially in the overseas Test matches where India plays with four pacers and his batting skills give more stability to the team as well. Earlier today, TOI has reported that Shardul Thakur will be getting engaged at Mumbai Cricket Association’s facility in BKC with 75-odd guests. Also, it has been reported that he is expected to get married to Mittali Parulkar after the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 which will take place in Australia as well.

“There is a small engagement function at the Mumbai Cricket Association’s facility in BKC on Monday, for which he has invited 75-odd guests-mostly close friends and family members. The wedding is likely to take place after the T20 World Cup in Australia next year,” a source close to the player told TOI.

However, the all-rounder has been going through a sublime form and he was even added to India’s main 15-member ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 squad after his stunning show for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021.

Meanwhile, Shardul Thakur has been rested from the ongoing series against New Zealand at home. He didn’t even take part in the three-match T20I series as well.
On the other hand, some reports have suggested that Shardul Thakur will play the 3rd unofficial Test match against South ‘A’ which will start from December 6 and he will leave early for South Africa as well. The main series will begin from December 17 and Team India will play 3 Tests, as many ODIs and 4 T20Is against South Africa as well.
