Promising wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Kaarthick married Mumbai-based Nikita Vanjara in Mumbai on Wednesday.
A Commerce graduate, Nikita hails from the Southern Indian city of Manor; her father Deepak and Kaarthick's father Krishna Kumar are friends.
The wedding ceremony took place in the morning in the presence of close relatives and friends at a suburban hotel, sources said.
None of the Indian cricket team members could attend the marriage as they are currently at the conditioning camp, which began in Kolkata on Wednesday, for the upcoming tour of Bangladesh.
The 21-year-old Chennai-based cricketer is also a part of the Bangladesh-bound Indian team and will join the camp on Sunday, the concluding day.
Kaarthick, who did not play a single match in the World Cup in Caribbean, has been included in the both the Test and one-day squads for the tour of Bangladesh, starting May 10.
