Cricket fraternity celebrates auspicious occasion of Raksha Bandhan

The auspicious occasion of Raksha Bandhan is being celebrated all over the country. The sacred love & bond of siblings is showcased by tying the ‘Rakhi’. Where the sister ties the thread of Rakhi to her brother and in return gets a lot of gifts. The rakhi is tied to the brother symbolizes that the brother will always protect his sister no matter what. That’s what the name defines (Raksha- ka- Bandhan).  

In the time of Pandemic many of us are struck without our siblings. But the warmth & festive vibes can be seen all over the social media. Various celebrities from different fraternity showered their greetings on their social media handles.  

Cricket fraternity also celebrated this auspicious occasion with their sisters & brothers. They posted various pictures some funny some penned down emotional messages for their siblings.

In spite of the 'temporary' distance, the bond of love I share with my sisters is stronger than ever.
