Cricket : Wives

Girls,

Lemme include y'all in this glorious game.

These females have all married Cricketers !  :kiss:

                                         

Neil McKenzie

McKenzie shared in the Test-record opening stand of 415, against Bangladesh in February 2008,

but for many red-blooded South African males he forged an even greater partnership

when he married Kerry McGregor :

South Africa's original Wonderbra model. ........(pictured above  :wink:

It must have been a photogenic wedding:

McKenzie's sister, Megan, is a leading model herself,

and dated Mark Boucher for a while.....

Imran Khan

Gossip columnists and the paparazzi had a field day during the romance and

subsequent marriage of Imran, Pakistan's most successful captain,and

Jemima, the pretty daughter  :kiss:

of the millionaire financier Sir James Goldsmith.

They tied the knot in 1995, and subsequently had two children, although the marriage

ended in 2004.

Imran said, rather sadly, that they decided to divorce because he never had time

for his family because of his "other life" in Pakistan politics.....

           

Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi

One of the earliest marriages between cricket and show business was in 1969,

when the Nawab of Pataudi - India's Test captain - married Sharmila Tagore,

a noted Bollywood heroine, who, two years before, had become

the first Indian actress to appear on screen in a bikini. :kiss:

Cynics doubted that the marriage would last -

Pataudi was a Muslim and Tagore a Hindu -

but they remained happily together until his death earlier this year

They had three children.

Mohammad Azharuddin

The former Indian Test captain Azharuddin, now an MP, was another to sweep a

beauty queen off her feet: his second wife is Sangeeta Bijlani :

who was Miss India in 1980

and subsequently appeared in several Bollywood movies.

Some were less impressed by her acting:

writing in Sportstar magazine,

Ted Corbett called her "Mademoiselle Film Star Class 3".



1st wife with their children :

                                   
He is now divorce with sangeeta and remarrid this " youngie "  ::lol::

Jwala Gutta , 26 year old badminton champion !!






                     

Shane Warne

WHo else but Warne, announced his engagement during 2011to the shapely

British actress-cum-model Elizabeth Hurley. :kiss:

Hurley's most famous roles have included Vanessa Kensington in the Austin Powers

movies and the Devil in Bedazzled, although she is probably even more famous for

wearing a Versace dress implausibly held together by safety pins, ::lol::

Since they got together Warne has sported a new, sleeker look, although the

Daily Mail probably went a bit far in June by claiming

"Liz Hurley has turned Warnie into a spooky waxwork".



Shane's previous Life of Booze , sex and Rock 'n roll !! 

Graeme Smith

After a long dalliance with Minki van der Westhuizen -

a prominent  model known as "Slinki Minki" -

South Africa's Test captain Smith turned his attention to the world of music,

and wed the Irish singer (and part-time model) Morgan Deane in 2011,

not long after she had done backing vocals for the execrable pop duo

Jedward at the Eurovision Song Contest.

Slinki Minki  :kiss:



BUT Morgan got the Wedding Band  :wink:

Martin Crowe

methink he is related to Russel Crowe , the Gladiator   

The former New Zealand captain Crowe fulfilled many a teenager's dream when he married Miss Universe in 2008.

His bride, Lorraine Downes, had won the coveted beauty-queen title in St Louis in

1983;

she remains the only New Zealander to win it. :kiss:

It was the second marriage for both of them:

Lorraine's first husband was Murray Mexted, a rugby union All Black.



And now  :wink:
