Jayant Yadav ties the knot with Disha Chawla

Yadav

India all-rounder Jayant Yadav has tied the knot with his long-term girlfriend Disha Chawla. Yadav last played for India in February 2017. Four months before that, he had made his debut in international cricket in the Vizag ODI against New Zealand.

Yadav has not played any ODI since then. Few days after his ODI debut, he played his first Test when India hosted England for a five-Test series. The Haryana all-rounder impressed straight away by making notable contributions with both bat and ball. In his debut Test, he scored 62 runs in addition to picking up 4 wickets.

It was followed by his maiden fifty and four wickets in the following game. In his third Test, Yadav became the first Indian batsman to score a Test century at No.9. In February, he played one more Test which was against Australia before being dropped. The 31-year old has not played for India since then and is unlikely to get a chance in the coming days.

Away from the cricket action, Yadav is all set to start a new innings in his life with his partner Disha. The news of his wedding was revealed by his Haryana teammate and India spin star Yuzvendra Chahal. The leg-spinner took to Twitter to congratulate the couple.

 

Yadav was last seen in action in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy for Haryana where he played six matches. He picked up seven wickets in the tournament. Prior to that, he had played two games in the IPL while plying his trade for champions Mumbai Indians.
