Rajasthan Royals fast bowler Jaydev Unadkat tied the knot with fiancee Rinny Kantaria in an intimate ceremony on February 2. The ceremony was reportedly held in Anand, Gujarat, and it was attended by the bowler's close friends and family members. Social media was flooded with wishes for the cricketing star, and people from the cricket fraternity also congratulated the bowler on his wedding. However, it was the wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik who stole the show with his hilarious response.

The left-arm pacer has enjoyed moderate success in his cricketing career so far. Apart from his stint with Team India, the player also is a regular feature in the Indian Premier League. He has also proved his mettle as a captain as he led from the front to guide Saurashtra to a historic Ranji Trophy win in 2019-20.

The lanky fast bowler will also take the field for the Rajasthan Royals side in the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2021), as the franchise retained him ahead of the IPL auction. Former Kolkata Knight Riders captain Dinesh Karthik was one of the notable names to congratulate the 29-year-old after his wedding function. The veteran wicketkeeper took to his Twitter account and joked that the wicket-taker's wicket is finally down. Netizens relished Karthik's witty comic and lauded him for his sense of humour.
