Rahul Tewatia shot to fame in IPL 2020 after his heroics in Sharjah, where he hit five sixes in Sheldon Cottrell’s over and helped Rajasthan Royals (RR) to chase down a record total of 224 against Kings XI Punjab.

And now, Tewatia has moved on to yet another important event in his life. The 27-year-old got engaged to Riddhi Paddhu in a private ceremony which took place at his home town in Haryana on Wednesday (February 3).
