Who are the most beautiful wives of Indian cricketers? There is no single answer because beauty is a matter of personal taste. This unranked selection introduces 10 women, including Anushka Sharma, Athiya Shetty and Ritika Sajdeh, with photographs, their cricketing partners and a short look at their own careers.

1. Anushka Sharma, wife of Virat Kohli

Anushka Sharma brings film-star glamour to this selection of Indian cricketers’ wives. She married Virat Kohli in December 2017, after establishing herself in Hindi cinema with films such as Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Band Baaja Baaraat and Sultan. Her acting debut came in 2008, so her public identity was well established long before the wedding.
