Love is in the air between cricketers and Bollywood stars. While Indian skipper Virat Kohli admitted to being in a relationship with Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma by posting a photo of them together on Twitter and sharing a Valentine’s Day message on February 14 , it was Yuvraj Singh’s turn now to tease his friend Zaheer Khan. Actress Sagarika Ghatge, who is reportedly dating former Indian cricketer Zaheer, had a light-hearted banter with Yuvraj ahead of the release of her film ‘Irada’.
In the past couple of years, marriages between cricketers and Bollywood stars have been frequent. Be it Harbhajan Singh and Geeta Basra or Yuvraj Singh and Hazel Keech, the marriage between a cricketer and a bollywood actress is the latest trend.
During the Yuvraj Singh-Hazel Keech wedding, there were reports that former Indian fast bowler Zaheer Khan was in a relationship with Chak De India actress Sagarika Ghatge. It was India batsman Rohit Sharma who dropped a huge hint about the relationship when he tweeted from his official handle.
Now, in 2017, the reports of Zaheer and Sagarika being in a relationship is gaining more ground. Sagarika’s latest film ‘Iraada’ released on Friday and Zaheer tweeted about the release of the film and praised it for being a gripping story. However, it was Yuvraj’s tweet that set rumour mills abuzz as he had a light-hearted banter with the actress, in which he indirectly tagged seemed to tag Zaheer.

This is not the first time that Zaheer’s name has been linked with a Bollywood actress. The former Baroda pacer was earlier linked with Isha Sharvani, but it was never confirmed by either of them.
The former India left-arm pacer, who has taken close to 300 Test wickets, is the one of the most successful Indian pacers in both Test cricket as well as ODIs. He still continues to play in the Indian Premier League, featuring for the Delhi Daredevils.
