Sachin Tendulkar congratulated the celebrity couple for the birth of their son

Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar took the occasion to congratulate the couple for becoming a proud parent to a baby boy. He posted, Heartiest congratulations to the two of you on the newest addition to your family! Wishing little Angad a life filled with love, joy and countless beautiful innings. Welcome to the world young champ!"

RCB wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik too wished the couple on social media.

IPL franchises were not too behind as Sunrisers Hyderabad and RCB congratulated them for being a proud parent.

Former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh too joined the ranks in wishing the player.

Bumrah and Sanjana got married in 2021 in a very low-key affair at a very private ceremony in Goa. Only a few of their close relatives and friends were present on that occasion. The celebrity cricket couple managed to keep their relationship under wraps and it only became evident when the star pacer got married during England's tour of India. Bumrah just returned to the Indian fold having missed more than a year of cricketing action for a back injury. He captained India in the T20I series against Ireland and will spearhead the bowling lineup in the upcoming ICC ODI World Cup.
