The ongoing ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 has witnessed some extraordinary performances on the field, but it’s not just the cricketing world that’s taken notice. India’s fast bowler, Mohammed Shami, has not only impressed with his wicket-taking abilities but has also received a marriage proposal from an actress.
Shami’s journey in the World Cup didn’t start as expected. He was initially left on the bench for the first four games, with Shardul Thakur getting the nod ahead of him. However, fate had other plans for the pacer.
After a crucial injury ruled Hardik Pandya out of the action and Thakur was dropped, Shami finally got his chance to shine. He seized the opportunity with both hands, showing his mettle on the field.
Since his comeback into the playing eleven, Shami’s performances have been nothing short of sensational. He announced his return with a remarkable 5-wicket haul against New Zealand, setting the stage for what was to come.
Shami’s wicket-taking spree continued with a four-wicket haul against the reigning world champions, England. He then outdid himself with another five-wicket haul against Sri Lanka.
In his most recent outing, Shami claimed two crucial wickets against South Africa. His remarkable performance has catapulted him to the fourth-highest wicket-taker in the ongoing World Cup, an impressive feat considering he has played only four matches, accumulating a total of 16 wickets.
As Shami set the World Cup stage ablaze with his performances, actress Payal Ghosh couldn’t resist making a playful marriage proposal to the cricketer. She publicly announced her proposal with a touch of humour, stating that she would marry him if he improved his English.

Apart from her acting career, Payal Ghosh is actively involved in politics. She holds the position of vice president of the women’s wing in Ramdas Athawale’s political party, making her a prominent figure outside the entertainment world.

While Shami’s cricketing career is on the upswing, his personal life has seen its share of turmoil. His marriage with his estranged wife, Hasin Jahan, has reached a breaking point. Although legally still married, the couple no longer resides together.
Shami and Jahan tied the knot in 2014 and welcomed a daughter the following year. However, their relationship took an unexpected turn in 2018 when Jahan accused the cricketer of domestic violence and adultery. She even filed a police case against Mohammed Shami, making headlines for all the wrong reasons.
