Meet Pakistani cricketers who fell in love with Indian women
In this collection of pictures we shall know about famous Pakistani cricketers who fell in love with Indian women. Let's dive in.
Love rises above all divisions, whether of race, region, or belief. Marriage is a cherished union that brings two individuals together in a deeply meaningful and lasting connection.
Though the India-Pakistan border remains a source of intense discussion and sentiment, individuals from both nations have frequently discovered love beyond these dividing lines.
The first person that comes to mind isn't just a celebrated cricketer, but also the husband of India's top tennis icon, Sania Mirza. Together, they exemplify a true power couple, each thriving in their own professional arenas. Married for over a decade, they share a son and balance their sporting commitments across continents. Despite their busy schedules, they cherish their time together at their residence in Dubai when not competing.
A Pakistani pace bowler had his heart won by an Indian woman from Faridabad. Samiya Arzoo, who previously worked as a flight engineer in Dubai, met him there, and their connection soon blossomed into love. They eventually chose to build a life together and are now proud parents to a lovely daughter.
A renowned Test cricketer from the past fell for Bollywood star Reena Roy during the 1980s, a time when she was enjoying tremendous success in her film career. Her unexpected announcement of marriage to Mohsin Khan surprised many. The wedding took place in Karachi, and the couple later settled in Mumbai. Though their relationship didn't stand the test of time, they have a daughter named Sanam Khan.
Ex-Pakistani cricketer Zaheer Abbas, often referred to as the 'Bradman of Asia,' fell in love with Rita Luthra in 1988, who later adopted the name Samina Abbas after their union. Prior to this, he had been married to another woman in Pakistan.

4 Indian Cricketers Who Are Playing In MLC 2025: Unmukt Chand, Agni Chopra And...
3 / 8 Agni Chopra, who holds the record of being the first cricketer to hit four tons in his first four Ranji Trophy matches while playing for Mizoram, is currently representing MI New York (MINY) in the Major League Cricket (MLC) 2025 season. Agni, son of Bollywood director Vidhu Vinod Chopra, who played domestic cricket in India as recently as January 2025, was allowed to participate in MLC 2025 for MI New York due to a special reason. Interestingly, Agni is not an Indian passport holder despite being Indian. Chopra holds a USA citizenship due to his birth in Detroit. His dream to play in America came true as the BCCI recently amended their policy which stated that players with Indian passports would only be allowed to compete in the domestic tournaments. Earlier, overseas cricketers (even entire teams, such as those in the Duleep Trophy) had played domestic cricket in India, but they will no longer be allowed to do so.

The one who taught me that the only finish line worth crossing is the one you reach by never giving up! Lots of love," tagging his father's handle, @yograjofficial. Yograj Singh, a former India cricketer and an actor, is remembered for his strict, disciplinarian parenting — often described by Yuvraj as both demanding and defining. The lessons of hard work, mental toughness, and the refusal to quit clearly influenced Yuvraj's remarkable journey through Indian cricket , from a flamboyant match-winner to a cancer survivor who made an inspiring comeback. One of India's greatest limited-overs match-winners, Yuvraj played 402 international matches between 2000 and 2017, amassing over 11,000 runs. He was central to India's historic 2011 World Cup win, earning the Player of the Tournament award for his all-round brilliance - 362 runs and 15 wickets. He also etched his name in history with six sixes in an over during the 2007 T20 World Cup. Kuldeep Yadav hints at spin-friendly wicket ahead of England Test series While Yuvraj has often spoken about the tough love he received from his father, this public message reflected a softer, more thankful side of that bond — one built on grit, legacy, and enduring love.
