Marriage proposal is slam-dunk at Commonwealth Games

Explore Business Standard

An English basketball player stunned his girlfriend by proposing on-court at the Commonwealth Games -- but happily, she accepted.
Jamell Anderson lured Georgia Jones, who plays for Englands women's team, to the centre of the court on Australia's Gold Coast with the help of team-mates.
He then surprised her by getting down on one knee, producing an engagement ring and popping the question.
"I had absolutely no idea," Jones, 28, said. "He told me I was just getting a picture taken."
"Its been on my mind for a while. So now I can just play basketball."
