The 30-year-old tied the knot with Meha in January 2023. He had shared glimpses of the wedding in a video on his social media account.
Axar made his last appearance for the Indian team in the T20I series in South Africa. He was a notable absentee in India’s squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia.
On Tuesday, India captain Rohit Sharma revealed that Axar was not included in the squad because he was on paternity leave during a press conference in Melbourne.
“Kuldeep, obviously, is not 100 per cent fit. He recently went through a hernia surgery. And the other options, like Axar, he had a baby, so he is not going to travel. So Tanush was the right option for us at this point. And he has certainly shown in the domestic level what he is capable of,” Rohit said.
Last month, Axar along with Ravi Bishoi, and Rishabh Chauhan offered prayers at Mahakaleshwar temple located in Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain district on Tuesday and took blessings of Baba Mahakal (Lord Shiva).
The cricketers also participated in the ‘Bhasma Aarti’ of Baba Mahakal performed here on the occasion. They were spotted sitting together in the Nandi hall during the Arti and were engrossed in the devotion of Lord Mahakal. (ANI)
