Bhuvneshwar's wedding reception is expected to be held in Bulandshahar on November 26 and on November 30 in New Delhi.

Bhuvneshwar, who is considered one of the best death bowlers in India, grabbed four wickets each in the two innings of the first Test against Sri Lanka and was named man-of-the-match for bowling India to the brink of victory.
