Kareena Kapoor Khan bats for Cricket

Her husband Saif Ali Khan may not be following his illustrious father and grandfather as a third-generation cricketer, but Kareena Kapoor did have a moment of glory at Melbourne, unveiling the trophies of the ICC T20 World Cups for women and men. Saif’s late father Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi was the captain of the Indian cricket team and so was his late grandfather Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi. In fact, Ifthikar also played three tests for England before the Partition.

“My late father-in-law was one of the greatest cricketers who played for the Indian cricket team and it is an honour for me to be unveiling the trophy,” Kareena had said in a statement before the event.

Not long ago, Kareena mentioned on an award show that she would like her son Taimur to be a cricketer.
