KKR Star Venkatesh Iyer Ties the Knot with Shruti Raghunathan
Amidst the fervor and excitement surrounding the T20 World Cup, Indian cricket fans rejoiced at the news of all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer's marriage to Shruti Raghunathan. The Kolkata Knight Riders star tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony on Sunday morning, surrounded by family and friends.
Iyer, who had a stellar performance in IPL 2024, played a pivotal role in KKR's title victory. In 14 matches, he amassed 370 runs at a remarkable strike rate of 158.80, including four half-centuries. His highest score of 70 came in a crucial match against the Sunrisers Hyderabad.
In the IPL 2024 final, Iyer's magnificent half-century (52*) helped KKR chase down Sunrisers' paltry total of 113 in just 10.3 overs. The victory marked KKR's third IPL title, a testament to their dominance throughout the season.
"This is what we demanded from the team and every individual. They stood up to the right occasion and the feeling is hard to express," said KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer after lifting the trophy. "We played like invincibles throughout the season. There's so much to cherish right now."
Iyer's marriage has been met with an outpouring of love and well wishes from fans and fellow cricketers alike. The couple's wedding photos have gone viral on social media, capturing the joy and happiness of their special day.
