Nitish Rana and Saachi Marwah Start a New Chapter
No one saw this heartwarming surprise coming from Indian cricketer Nitish Rana and his wife Saachi Marwah. On June 14, 2025, the couple welcomed twin boys into their family, stirring up a wave of excitement not just among friends and relatives, but across the cricket community as well.
The news broke through a charming Instagram post where the couple shared a snap of their newborns’ tiny hands. The caption was both playful and touching—a nod to their shared tattoos and an honest admission of how they didn’t quite see parenthood coming so soon. The phrase "Same date. Same us. Just two tiny humans added" summed it up with a smile and maybe a few happy tears for those close to them.
Saachi Marwah, who is well-known as an interior designer and also happens to be the cousin of comedian Abhishek Krishna, had been waiting for this day since she married Nitish back in February 2019. Their close-knit relationship has only grown stronger, and the couple’s journey has often been visible on their social media. This latest announcement genuinely feels like a new chapter for both of them.
Reactions Pour In from the Cricket Community
As soon as the post went live, the cricket fraternity jumped in with hearty congratulations. Rishabh Pant’s sister, Sakshi Pant, wasted no time chiming in, promising to be a dream aunt to the new arrivals. Her excitement was obvious, and it quickly echoed through comments and reposts.
Other well-known cricketers like Venkatesh Iyer and Piyush Chawla also sent their blessings. Even those on the outskirts of the sports world—fans and family alike—got swept up in the joy, sending messages and sharing their own stories of parenthood. The news made quick rounds on social media, with the photo of Nitish and Saachi’s twins going viral within hours.
Nitish Rana, who has donned the Indian jersey in three international matches and played a significant role for the Rajasthan Royals in the most recent IPL, is known for his steady resolve both on and off the field. Friends of the couple often joke that if Nitish can handle the pressure of an IPL chase, he'll do just fine with midnight feedings and diaper duty.
The twins’ arrival feels even more special since Nitish and Saachi’s partnership has been grounded in friendship, playfulness, and a bit of unpredictability—as highlighted by their forever tattoos. That shared sense of adventure seems poised to continue as they step into parenthood. And from the outpouring of support they've received, it's clear the couple—and their little ones—are starting this journey with a whole community behind them.
