India and Rajasthan Royals all-rounder Shivam Dube has married his longtime girlfriend Anjum Khan in Mumbai. “We loved with a love which was more than love. And now this is where our forever starts,” the all-rounder said on Twitter.
His message on social media attracted contrarian opinions as many users criticised his move of marrying a girl from the Muslim community. Some tried to remind him of his religion after his marriage with Anjum but the cricketer has not responded to any of those inflammatory comments.
Dube has played one ODI and 13 T20 for India in the career that started in 2019. He made his ODI debut against West Indies while his maiden T20 opportunity came against Bangladesh in 2019.
He was bought for a heft amount by the Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League 2021. However, his performance was not up to the mark and he left the team management disappointed.
