Venkatesh Iyer, the dependable force for Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL, recently sealed the deal with Shruti Raghunathan. He joyously posted a snapshot on Instagram, capturing their beaming smiles after their engagement ceremony.

While his innings in the Indian cricket squad have been limited, Iyer remains a pivotal asset for KKR, showcasing his prowess in several matches.

For now, there's only limited information available about Shruti, as her Instagram account is private. However, reports suggest that she graduated with a B.com degree from PSG College of Arts and Science and holds a Master’s in Fashion Management from NIFT, Delhi. Presently, she serves as a Merchandise Planner at Lifestyle International Private Limited in Bengaluru, Karnataka.

Venkatesh Iyer’s glittering IPL career compared to national side outings 

Venkatesh Iyer, a left-handed batter representing Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the IPL, boasts an impressive track record of 956 runs across 36 IPL matches at a striking rate of 130.25. His stellar performance in 2023, scoring 404 runs in 14 games at a strike rate of 145.85, reaffirms his prowess, clinching one century and two half-centuries. 

Expected to be retained by KKR for IPL 2024, his consistency and impactful play stand out. Although his international appearances have been limited, featuring in two ODIs and nine T20Is, the 28-year-old had his moments, albeit brief, when standing in for the injured all-rounder, Hardik Pandya. However, his recent outing for India against Sri Lanka in February 2022 didn't reflect his potential.

Venkatesh recently showcased his form in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy for Madhya Pradesh, amassing 122 runs across five matches at an impressive average of 61. His last three innings—43, 29, and 35*—underscored his consistency and form. Looking ahead, he's gearing up for exciting performances in the domestic circuit.
