Smriti Mandhana became the centre of attention at the DY Patil Stadium after singer Palash Muchhal proposed to her on the cricket pitch. The venue recently hosted India’s Women’s World Cup final win, making the moment even more emotional for fans watching the reel.
In the video shared by Palash, Smriti is blindfolded as he walks her to the centre of the field. When she removes the blindfold, Palash gets on one knee and presents a ring. Smriti says yes, and both families join them on the pitch. His sister, singer Palak Muchhal, was also present. The couple will get married on November 23 and have already received wishes from Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Smriti later posted a playful Instagram reel with her World Cup winning teammates, showing off her engagement ring. The couple kept their relationship private for years, although Palash was often seen supporting her during the World Cup.
Smriti is currently in excellent form, scoring 434 runs in 9 innings and becoming India’s highest run scorer in the tournament.
The proposal created mixed reactions online. Many fans found the moment sweet and memorable, while others felt the cricket pitch should not be used for personal celebrations. Some even called it disrespectful to the field’s emotional value.
Despite the divided opinions, the proposal received massive attention. As Smriti prepares for her wedding, fans remain invested in her journey both on and off the field.
