Hot Cricketers In The World
#1. Imran Khan
The most notorious and prolific womanizer in Cricket sport’s history has to be Imran Khan. Imran Khan is regarded as Pakistan’s most famous cricketer and perhaps its best-known playboy. He is an Oxford graduate and captained his country to its lone cricket World Cup victory in 1992. During his playing days, he was known to be a hedonistic bachelor and was active on the London nightclub circuit.
He had numerous girlfriends during his bachelor life. Many of them were unknown and were called ‘mysterious blondes’ by British newspaper The Times at that time.
Some of his out of marriage relationships included relationships with Zeenat Aman, Emma Sergeant, Susie Murray-Philipson, Sita White, Sarah Crawley, Stephanie Beacham, Goldie Hawn, Kristiane Backer, Susannah Constantine, Marie Helvin, Caroline Kellett, Jerry Hall, and Lulu Blacker.
In a book published in 2009, Christopher Sandford claimed that former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto and Imran Khan had a close relationship when both were students in Oxford. He wrote in his book that Bhutto at the age of 21 first came close to Khan in 1975. They remained in the relationship for about two months.
He proclaimed Imran Khan’s mother also tried to have an arrange the marriage between them, but later these claims were denounced by Khan saying they were only friends.
His most well-known relationship was with late heiress Sita White, daughter of late British industrialist Gordon White, Baron White of Hull. They remained in the relationship for about six years having met in 1987-88. During their relationship, Sita White alleged that Imran refused to accept their child(Tyrian Jade) because she was a girl and Khan had urged White to go for an abortion.
Imran’s former wife Reham Khan later revealed that Tyrian was not the only child fathered by him out of wedlock, there were four others, some of them had Indian mothers and the oldest of his children is 34 years old. In an interview later, Reham conceded that she did not know where these children were, who they were and whether Khan was only boasting about it, and said that she “didn’t even know if it is true also because you can never make out whether Imran Khan tells the truth.” In 2004, after Sita’s death, Khan agreed to accept Tyrian as his child and welcomed her to join their house.
On 18 February 2018, it was confirmed that Khan has married Bushra Manika his spiritual mentor. According to Khan, his life has been influenced by Sufism for three decades, and this is what drew him closer to his wife.
#2. Shane Warne
Shane Warne is considered as one of the greatest bowlers cricket has ever seen. He is respected on and off the cricket field for his accomplishments with the cricket ball. But he has been nothing less than controversial in his personal life. He is known to be one of the most famous playboys in cricket. Several incidents during his career corroborate his playboy nature.
Warne was criticized in the media for text messaging a woman while on tour in South Africa, accused of sending lewd and harassing messages, but the woman who made the claims was subsequently charged with extortion in her own country. In 2000, he lost his Australian vice-captaincy after sending erotic text messages to a British nurse. On 7 May 2006, a newspaper published pictures of Warne standing in his underwear with models Coralie Eichholz and Emma Kearney, as well as explicit text messages allegedly from Warne.
In September 2007, Simone returned to Australia from England after her husband had accidentally sent a text message meant for another woman to her phone.
Warne’s history of high-profile marital infidelities inspired Australian singer-songwriter Kevin Bloody Wilson’s 2003 music video entitled “The Shane Warne Song” as well as lines in Tim Minchin’s “Some People Have It Worse Than Me” and “The JLA Song”.
On 12 December 2010, following press reports and footage of him and English actress Elizabeth Hurley kissing, Warne announced via his Twitter account that he and Simone had separated a couple of months previously.
#3. Yuvraj Singh
Yuvraj Singh‘s good looks and flamboyant batting style have swept the feet of many gorgeous ladies throughout his career. He has been allegedly linked with many actresses in his career and was to known to party hard during the first half of his career. He was rumored to be dating Kim Sharma during the early days of his international career. Kim Sharma who is the cousin of Arjun Rampal was not accepted by Yuvraj’s mother Shabnam Singh, which led to their separation after a four-year-long relationship.
Then he had a rebound relationship with Preeti Jhangiani which was short-lived. He then allegedly dated Deepika Padukone who even hosted a grand party on cricketer’s birthday. Deepika also attended some cricket matches to see Yuvraj play during that period and were often spotted together partying before eventually breaking up.
Yuvraj fell for another Bollywood diva Riya sen soon after his break-up with Deepika Padukone. Yuvraj met Riya at a party and the two soon hit it off.
Their relationship began steadily but faded away soon. Later a picture of Minisha Lamba and Yuvraj kissing each other went viral on the media but the speculations were cooled down when the actress claimed it was her ‘lookalike’. During 2013 IPL season there was reportedly a rift between love couple-come Kings XI franchise owners Preity Zinta and Ness Wadia, which led to an alleged fling between Preity and Yuvraj.
Although the two denied any relation between them apart from friendship, rumors suggested the opposite. After having several link-ups he finally settled in life when he married Hazel Keech in 2016.
#4. Mohammad Azharuddin
Mohammad Azharuddin married Naureen in 1987 and has two sons with her. In 1996, he divorced her and married Bollywood actress Sangeeta Bijlani. The marriage reportedly ended in divorce in 2010, due to Azhar’s affair with badminton player Jwala Gutta. However, the former captain claims he is still married to Sangeeta, clearing rumors of his 3rd marriage. He was rumored to be in a relationship with a foreigner in the recent past.
#5. Tino Best
I love girls – and girls love me is the motto of Tino Best in his own words. This line is enough to gauge the nature of the flamboyant West Indies bowler. He has a beautiful baby called Tamani with his first love Melissa and was in a serious relationship with her, but things went bad and they had to split.
Tino Best says that the failure of his relationship turned him into the serial playboy he is today. In his book he said – I reckon I’m the best-looking bald-headed guy in the world. I joke about being the black Brad Pitt! Everywhere I went as a cricketer; I’d talk to girls, date girls and hung-out with girls. I reckon I’ve fooled around with anywhere between 500 and 650 girls, all around the world.” These words from Tino Best himself prove his playboy nature.
Among others, Chris Gayle, Virat Kohli, Dwayne Bravo, Viv Richards are some of them who can be included in the list of playboys. Virat Kohli was linked with various models and actresses in the past, they include Sanjana, Sarah Jane Dias, Tamannah Bhatia, and Sakshi. He reportedly dated Izabelle Leitemuch, a Brazilian model for two years before getting into a relationship with his girlfriend turned wife Anushka Sharma.
