Anushka Sharma celebrates father’s day with precious family moments
She captioned her post, “To the first man I ever loved—and the first man our daughter did… Happy Father’s Day to all the beautiful fathers everywhere.”
In the 53rd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL), a rejuvenated Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will face Ajinkya Rahane-led Rajasthan Royals (RR) in a do-or-die clash at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur on Saturday.
Fresh from a nail-biting win over SunRisres Hyderabad on Thursday, the Virat Kohli-led side will be looking to continue the same performance to seal a play-offs berth as they also carry a better net run-rate (NRR) than their opponents.

On the other hand, Rajasthan lost their last encounter against Kolkata Knight Riders and with their NRR at -0.403, the hosts need a win by a huge margin.
