Former Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir and his wife Natasha have been spotted at Tirumala, Andhra Pradesh’s famed Srivari shrine. Gambhir made his first journey to this holy site around this time, and the couple was spotted fervently praying.
The 41-year-old batsman voiced his intense wish to return to this spiritual location in an exclusive post-prayer interview. He also expressed his sincere prayers for Team India’s victory in the next World Cup without holding back.
Gambhir appeared to be excited about the impending ODI World Cup while serving as the international consultant for Sanjiv Goenka-led teams, notably the Lucknow Super Giants in the Indian Premier League (IPL). India is prepared to face Australia in Chennai on October 8 to open its campaign.
