Sreesanth opened up about his love affair an year back through twitter before the match-fixing scandal and there were reports that the marriage will take place soon after the IPL season. But, Sreesanth was arrested after the sixth season of the IPL and was jailed in Tihar for 27 days.

Sreesanth's close friends told India Today that his lover stood by him amid the match fixing scandal and was a pillar of strength during the crisis in his life.

Sreesanth fell in love with Bhuveneshwari six years ago when he met her before an ODI match against Pakistan in Jaipur. It is reported that Bhuveneshwari, a jewellery designer came to him to get an autograph and the cricketer was bowled over at first sight.

New Delhi, Jun 12: The BCCI on Friday called off Indian cricket team's short tour of Zimbabwe in August due to the threat posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The announcement was on expected lines after Sri Lanka Cricket announced on Thursday that India's limited overs tour in June-July was postponed indefinitely.

"The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Friday announced that the Indian Cricket Team will not travel to Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe owing to the current threat of COVID-19," BCCI secetary Jay Shah said in a statement.

"Team India was originally scheduled to travel to the island nation from 24th June 2020 for three ODIs and as many T20Is and to Zimbabwe for a series comprising three ODIs starting 22nd August 2020," Shah added.

The Indian team is yet to resume training and the camp is unlikely to take place before July. The players will take around six weeks to be match-ready.
