Priyanka Chopr💮a Jonas, a popular Indian actress and the winner of the Miss World 2000 pageant, is a big fan of cricket.
“My father used to love cricket. So, whenever there was a tournament, we would watch it together. If I used to get up from my seat during the match, and an Indian player hit a six, I was made to keep standing for some time. Cricket was a big thing at my place. My uncle has played Ranji cricket so it’s kind of a mad cricket-loving family,” said Priyanka, when she recently appeared on Nerolac Cricket Live.
The gorgeous diva also recalled her wꦰedding day when✱ Team Bride and Team Groom played a cricket match.
“My cousins are cricket fans, so during my wedding as well, we played cricket by dividing everyone into Team Bride and Team Groom. Nick is a great baseball player, but the two sports are different, so obviously, Team Bride won the match!” added Priyanka.

Speaking to Star Sports, the official broadcaster of the ongoing India-South Africa Test in Visakhapatnam, the 37-year-old Priyank💝a also said Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are her current favourite cricketers as she personally kn༺ows both.
She went on to narrate an incident when her in-laws were cheering for England during the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 as Eoin Morgan & Co. locked horns against the Men in Blue. On the other hand, Priyanka was cheering for Kohli & Co. with her mother. India lost the match by 31 runs as the hosts ended the visitors’ unbeaten run in the tournament.
Well, Virat and Rohit are undeniably two of the m♐ost popular cricketers in the world. When these two bats together, cricket seems to be a much more beautiful game. While Rohit is always hailed as a batsman who has that extra one second to watch the ball compared to others, Kohli is a fine example of how fitness plays a vital role in enhancing the performance of an athlete. With all the shots in his repertoire, Kohli has been one of the most dominating batsmen in world cricket across formats.
