10 Indian cricketers’ wives and their professions

5. Riva Solanki – Politician

Ravindra Jadeja was off to a slow start in his cricketing career but slowly grew into a very important figure in the side. He married Riva Solanki, who he met at a party and in a very short span of time, the duo decided to tie the knot. She has done Mechanical Engineering from Atmiya Institute of Technology and Science, Rajkot.

Riva joined the Bharatiya Janata Party recently and is expected to make a serious career in politics. Riva belongs to a wealthy background and some of her family members are already into politics. A year before she joined BJP, she worked as the head of Karni Sena’s women’s wing in Gujarat.
