New Delhi: The Indian Premier League (IPL) is not just about cricket; it often brings unexpected moments that grab fans’ attention. On Sunday, Rajasthan Royals (RR) secured a thrilling 6-run victory over Chennai Super Kings (CSK), but it wasn’t CSK’s loss that became the talking point—it was Bollywood actress Malaika Arora.

During the high-octane clash, Malaika Arora was seen sitting beside Sri Lankan cricket legend Kumar Sangakkara, who is currently the Director of Cricket for Rajasthan Royals. What caught everyone off guard was that Malaika was spotted wearing an RR jersey, leading to widespread speculation.

Is Something Brewing Between Malaika Arora and Kumar Sangakkara?

Malaika’s appearance with Sangakkara comes at a time when rumors about her breakup with actor Arjun Kapoor have been making headlines. While Arjun Kapoor has publicly stated that he is now single, Malaika has remained tight-lipped about the matter. Her presence alongside Sangakkara has ignited dating speculations among fans.

One fan even pointed out on social media, “Malaika has no official connection with Rajasthan Royals. Then why is she wearing an RR jersey and sitting with Kumar Sangakkara? This definitely hints at something!”

Rajasthan Royals Finally Secure First Win in IPL 2024

Before this match, Rajasthan Royals had suffered back-to-back defeats in IPL 2024. However, they finally turned things around by clinching their first victory of the season against CSK.

The standout performer for Rajasthan was Nitish Rana, who played a breathtaking knock of 81 runs off just 36 balls. His innings included 10 fours and 5 sixes, earning him the Player of the Match award.

On the other hand, CSK’s captain Ruturaj Gaikwad fought hard with a well-compiled 63 runs, but it wasn’t enough to take his team over the line.

While Rajasthan Royals celebrated their first victory, Malaika Arora’s unexpected appearance in an RR jersey alongside Kumar Sangakkara has now become the biggest talking point of the match. Is there something brewing between the two, or was it just a casual meeting? Only time will tell
