As India will be locking horns with Sri Lanka at home, Rahul might skip it to get married. The marriage is expected to be held in the first week of January 2023. In the absence of Rahul, Hardik Pandya can be appointed as the vice-captain of the Men in Blue.

Also, Athiya’s father Suniel Shetty confirmed the rumor about a couple of days ago about the marriage of the couple. “Hopefully soon, we will know when and where will the wedding will happen. I guess at the right time, everyone will know the details about the wedding,” Suniel told Hindustan Times.

Earlier, a BCCI official told InsideSport: “KL has asked for some personal time off. That is why he is not playing in New Zealand. He does not have any injury concerns or a break. He has some family commitments. I am not aware if he is getting married or engaged but yes, he has some personal commitment is what I can tell you.”
