The Indian cricket world was abuzz with excitement as Athiya Shetty, wife of celebrated cricketer KL Rahul, took to social media to announce the couple's first pregnancy. In a heartwarming post on Instagram, Athiya shared the news with her followers, expressing her joy and anticipation for their 'beautiful blessing' set to arrive in 2025. The announcement was met with a flood of congratulatory messages from fans, friends, and fellow cricketers, all wishing the couple a happy and healthy journey into parenthood.
Rahul and Athiya, who tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in January 2023, have been a beloved couple in the public eye. Their relationship has been a source of inspiration and joy for many, and their decision to start a family has only intensified the affection and well wishes they receive. While the couple is focused on this new chapter in their lives, Rahul also has his eyes set on the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the highly anticipated series between India and Australia.
Rahul's cricketing career has been marked by impressive performances in Test cricket. He made his Test debut in 2014 against Australia and has since amassed 2969 runs in 52 Tests, averaging 34.52. In 2024, he has demonstrated his continued form with 222 runs at an average of 44.40 in four Tests, including two half-centuries. However, his recent outings in the India A team against Australia A were not as successful, prompting him to work towards regaining his spot in the Indian national team's starting eleven for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, with the first Test scheduled for November 22 in Perth. This tournament presents a significant opportunity for Rahul to showcase his skills and contribute to India's success against their arch-rivals.
