West Indian ODI and T20I cricketer Nicholas Pooran married childhood sweetheart Alyssa Katherina Miguel on Monday.

'Jesus has blessed me with many things in this life. None greater than having you in my life. Welcoming Mr and Mrs Pooran,' Nicholas tweeted.

The couple began dating in 2014 and Pooran popped the question in November 2020.

Usually a dependable T20 batsman, Pooran, who plays for Punjab Kings in the IPL, didn't have the best outing this season scoring just 28 runs in 6 matches, scoring 4 ducks.

Here's hoping marriage brings him a change of luck when he wields the bat on IPL's resumption in September in the UAE, shortly before the Trinadadian turns 26 on October 2.
