In a private ceremony on June 4 in Lucknow, Indian cricketer and spinner Kuldeep Yadav proposed to his childhood friend Vanshika. A few Uttar Pradesh cricket players, including Rinku Singh, and close family members attended the private gathering.
The ceremony was held at a downtown location, and the couple exchanged rings in a customary fashion. From Shyam Nagar, Vanshika is employed at the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). Supporters and admirers have taken notice of the engagement.
Recently, Kuldeep Yadav was spotted playing for the Delhi Capitals (DC) in the Indian Premier League’s 2025 season (IPL). After seven victories, the team placed sixth in the standings. With 15 wickets at an economy rate of 7.07 in 14 games, the 30-year-old had a respectable season.
In addition to the IPL, Kuldeep Yadav has been an important member of the Indian national squad, helping them win the 2025 Champions Trophy and the 2024 T20 World Cup.

India’s forthcoming five-match Test series against England, which begins on June 20 at Headingley, Leeds, will have Kuldeep in action. In the 18-man Indian team, he is the only specialist spinner, a position that will be vital to him in England. After Ravichandran Ashwin retired from international cricket, his involvement became even more crucial.
As India embarks on a new era in Test cricket, Kuldeep’s performance will be crucial. Rishabh Pant is the vice-captain of the team, and Shubman Gill, the recently named Test captain, is in charge. With a young team playing a formidable England team at home, this tour represents a daring move for Indian cricket. The emphasis would be on how the upcoming generation handles the Three Lions, while Indian veterans Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma rested their feet from the longest format.
