Great performance, but can we focus more on the cricket? He was brilliant with bat and ball, that's the real story. The personal life updates are cute, but the 'Man of the Match' award is the headline for me.

Bhai, first the divorce news, now this new chapter. Life moves fast. Glad he's found happiness. More importantly, he's back to his best bowling rhythm. That near hat-trick was thrilling!

The caption "Man of the match of my life" is actually so sweet. It's nice to see athletes being celebrated by their partners. Also, 52 off 28 in a World Cup match? That's champion stuff.

Respectfully, I feel the article spends too many paragraphs on the personal angle. His all-round performance won India the game decisively. That should be the focus. The personal stuff is his private matter.
