3) Mike Brearley and Mana Sarabhai:
Who will learn a completely different language for around four years for his lady love? Mike Brearley will! The ’81 Ashes hero married Mana Sarabhai, daughter of famous industrialist Gautam Sarabhai and to match up to the requirements of his father-in-law of having “a son-in-law who has sound knowledge about Indian culture”, Brearley hired eminent Gujarati poet Saroop Dhruv.
The couple met for the first time when the English team toured India during 1976-77. Mr and Mrs Brearley are blessed with two children.
