They say behind every great cricketer is a strong woman—and in the case of India’s leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, that woman is his wife, Dhanashree Verma.

Love is in the air, and Chahal certainly took to the skies with his sweet birthday tribute for Dhanashree, who turned 24 on Tuesday (September 24).

In a touching video filled with memories that could make even the toughest cricketer misty-eyed, Chahal left no stone unturned to show just how blessed he feels to have her in his life.

“Happy Birthday Wifey! Thank you for being there all the time,” he wrote, adding a little extra sprinkle of love, “I am so blessed to have you as my best and ever-loving, supportive wife. Wishing you the best of best birthdays, my love, today, tomorrow, and many more years to come.

"I wish you a speedy recovery. We will have a blast once I am back… love you.” It’s clear that for Yuzi, Dhanashree is more than just a wife—she’s his number one fan, cheerleader, and partner in crime!

Even his former IPL teammate, AB de Villiers, couldn’t resist dropping a comment, saying, “Great Video!” while another teammate from Rajasthan Royals chimed in with a cheerful, “Happy Birthday, Dhanashree!” It’s all fun and games until someone brings the cake, right?

Earlier that week, Chahal had shared another adorable clip featuring the couple. While it wasn’t a special occasion, Yuzi knows how to keep the love alive every single day. He captioned that post with a gem: “My strongest woman is my strength.” If that’s not the definition of relationship goals, I don’t know what is!

On a side note, Dhanashree is currently on the mend after undergoing knee surgery—thanks to a slip during one of her Instagram Reel shoots. As she recovers, we can only hope she’ll be by Yuzi’s side in Australia, cheering him on like the ultimate partner-in-crime she’s vowed to be. Whether she can board that flight remains to be seen, but if love has anything to say about it, she just might make it!
