Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah's wife, sports broadcaster Sanjana Ganesan, talked candidly about how being a parent altered their lives.

Sanjana stated in the "Moment of Silence" podcast that the arrival of their son Angad in September 2023 caused a significant change in both their personal and Bumrah's cricket lives.

“When we held our baby for the first time, Jasprit was actually playing in the Asia Cup. He flew back just in time. I think he’s become a better cricketer since Angad was born. When you have a peaceful home to return to, where you can just be a dad and a husband, it helps a lot,” Ganesan said on the "Moment of Silence" podcast.

Sanjana also spoke about the wives of other cricketers. She said each of them is very different, just like the players.

“Everyone’s personality is unique. Sometimes I’ll interview a player and then later meet his wife in the stands, and I’ll think — yeah, I get it. It’s like yin and yang. She’s exactly what he needed in life,” she shared.

Sanjana giggled when she discussed her own on-camera interactions with Bumrah and how he tries to divert her attention during interviews.

“After the T20 World Cup win, I was interviewing him and he kept doing funny things — winking or smiling — just to throw me off. He knows when I’m focusing too hard and tries to break that,” she added.

Off the field, Sanjana said their bond is strong and easygoing.

“He’s my best gossip buddy. We’ll lie in bed, eat some chocolate, watch Netflix, and then just talk about our day. That’s our comfort space,” she added.
