Green shared a few pictures from their special day with his 9.58 lakh Instagram followers, captioning the post: “Husband and wife on the 4th of September.” The ceremony was attended by several of Green’s Australia teammates, including T20I skipper Mitchell Marsh, Marcus Stoinis, Cooper Connolly, and Xavier Bartlett among others.
The couple got engaged in February 2025 and have reportedly been dating since 2020.

Indian women’s cricket team refuses to accept Asia Cup trophy from ACC head Naqvi
The Asia Cup trophy impasse continued for the second year in a row after the victorious Indian women’s cricket on Sunday did not accept the cup from Mohsin Naqvi, the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) chairman from Pakistan.
Harmanpreet Kaur-led India defeated Sri Lanka by 72 runs here to lift their record-extending eighth Asia Cup title, but the players did not come out on the field for post-tournament presentation ceremonies.

“India are officially the (Asia Cup) champions. Trophy or no trophy doesn’t matter to us. This is BCCI’s stand (to not take trophy from Naqvi). We can’t say anything on this," India head coach Amol Muzumdar said in the post-match press conference.
It may be recalled that the Indian men’s team had last year declined to receive the Asia Cup trophy and medals from Naqvi, who heads the Pakistan Cricket Board and is also the Interior Minister of that country.
The Indian team is yet to receive the Asia Cup trophy, which has since been kept in the ACC office.
Instead the Suryakumar Yadav-led Indian outfit conducted an impromptu celebration on the dais without the physical prize.
However, this time the Indian women’s team members did not even return to the ground after BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia presented Nandini Sharma with an in-house best fielder medal.
However, the Sri Lankan team received the runners-up cheque from Naqvi, and before that all the players and support staff accepted medals from SLC interim chief Eran Wikramaratne.
Naqvi left the stadium immediately after presenting the award to Sri Lankan skipper Chamari Athapaththu, but unlike last year he moved away without carrying the trophy.
The diplomatic relations between India and Pakistan have been frozen ever since last year’s Pahalgam terror attack and the subsequent Operation Sindoor.

Coach's fasting, nod to Dhoni, 'funniest' team: Inside Ganges Grandmasters' GCL title
Ganges Grandmasters stunned the favourites, APL Pipers, to win the GCL 2026 title on Sunday, powered by an unconventional team culture built on humour, trust and camaraderie.

India’s batting legend Sunil Gavaskar has been invited to attend the 150th year of Test cricket celebrations at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in March 2027.
The former India captain, the first man to score 10,000 plus runs, has accepted the invitation and will attend the celebrations that will include a March 11–15 Test match between Australia and England just like what happened in 1977 to mark 100 years of Test cricket. The game is expected to be played with the pink ball.
The 1977 event saw the attendance of former England and Australia players, all contributing to thorough celebration of cricket — all 218 visitors housed at the Melbourne Hilton. The idea of the Centenary Test was mooted in 1973 by Hans Ebeling, who played one Test for Australia in 1934 before becoming an administrator.
Australia ended up winning the Test by 45 runs, the same victory margin as the hosts did on Test cricket’s ‘debut’ in 1877.
Gavaskar will leave for Australia after finishing his commentary duties post the five-Test India vs Australia series, fought this time in India for the 18th edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Gavaskar, 77, made three Test tours to Australia as a player in 1977-78, 1980-81 (as captain), and 1985-86. He was also part of the Cricket Australia-appointed selection panel to pick Australia’s Team of the Century in 2000.
According to the Cricket Australia (CA) website, the Test promises “world-class entertainment and an atmosphere alive with energy” and it will be “an unforgettable event on the world’s grandest cricket stage.”
