It seems like it has become a trend for every famous personality to play cricket whenever they visit India. It’s true that cricket is followed like a religion in this part of the world and the greats of this game like Sachin Tendulkar, etc are seen as God of this sport. Besides cricket, Indian people also love watching World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and there is a huge fan following for this sporting spectacle in the nation.
Earlier this year in April, Britain’s Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton played cricket in Mumbai along with Tendulkar and former Indian batsman Dilip Vengsarkar. Before that, in January this year, WWE star Dolph Ziggler was seen playing cricket with former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag and now another wrestler from the same sport has been seen playing cricket during his visit to India.

Alberto Del Rio, who is on a short trip to India, visited different cities and met fans of WWE as well. The Mexican superstar was also seen playing cricket with his fans as it was posted by WWE’s official Twitter account.

Seems Del Rio had a gala time in Kolkata and Bengaluru. Hopefully, he will return back with the memories of cricket to the USA and teach a few kids how to play this game there.
