Is the RCB Batter’s Better Half a Cricketer as Well?

It is highly likely that the duo’s love for Cricket might have brought them closer, enough for them to decide to spend the remaining part of their lives together.

Hailing from the city of Pune, Snehal Jadhav is quite an experienced cricketer herself. A right-handed wicket-keeper batter, she has played 1 First-class, 37 List A, and 31 Women’s Twenty20 matches in her career so far.

While her performances were not impressive enough to warrant a place in the Indian national women’s team, Snehal did play these domestic matches while representing the West Zone, Maharashtra, Hyderabad, and Odisha. There is no information with regard to whether or not she does play the game at any level presently.

When Snehal Jadhav’s threat forced husband to decide against quitting Cricket

More than a decade ago, Kedar Jadhav had almost decided to retire from the game. Reason? His name had not appeared in the list of 15 cricketers selected in the Maharashtra domestic team for an imminent tournament. Interestingly, the unfortunate news had reached Jadhav’s ears while he was in his honeymoon period.

A low-in-confidence Jadhav, then found the able support of his wife Snehal, who was quite displeased with the former’s decision. An adamant Snehal had made up her mind, that if Kedar retires from playing Cricket, she would go away from his life as well.

It was a non-negotiable deal for Kedar, who did put in the hard yards, and not only placed his Cricketing career back on track but also went on to make his international debut for team India in 2014.
