Chennai Super Kings' rising cricket star, Tushar Deshpande, has embarked on a new journey in his personal life. The pacer has tied the knot with his school-time girlfriend, Nabha Gaddamwar, in a heartwarming ceremony surrounded by friends and family. The marriage comes as a continuation of Deshpande's romance with his long-time "school crush.” Both had a picturesque engagement in Mumbai earlier this year, shortly after the conclusion of the IPL 2023 season.

On Instagram, the talented right-arm fast bowler shared a snapshot capturing the solemn moment of exchanging wedding vows with his new bride, Nabha Gaddamwar. The post was met with warm wishes and congratulations from fans, teammates, and fellow cricketers alike.

Deshpande's marriage celebration adds a personal touch to his recent professional success in the IPL. The fast bowler played a crucial role in the Chennai Super Kings' victorious campaign in the 2023 season. His noteworthy performances, particularly in the nail-biting final against the defending champions, the Gujarat Titans, at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, contributed to the team's triumph. Finishing the season as CSK's leading wicket-taker with 21 wickets in 16 matches, Deshpande solidified his status as a key asset in the team.

His impressive track record extends beyond the IPL, with noteworthy statistics in various formats of the game. Deshpande has demonstrated his skill and dedication with 80 wickets in 29 first-class games, 35 wickets in 34 List A matches, and 83 wickets in 59 T20Is.

Reflecting on his journey, Deshpande had previously acknowledged the significant influence of former CSK skipper MS Dhoni on his career. Describing their relationship as that of a soldier to his commander, he expressed confidence in Dhoni's guidance and credited the legendary captain for keeping things simple. The young bowler trusted Dhoni's plans and appreciated the freedom given to him while emphasizing the captain's role in guiding during challenging times.
