10 cricketers who married other cricketers' sisters

2. Faf du Plessis and Hardus Viljoen

Former South African skipper Faf du Plessis' half-sister, Rhemi Rynners, is married to pacer Hardus Viljoen. The couple tied the knot in December 2019. The relationship gained significant attention during a 2019 Mzansi Super League match when du Plessis, then captain of Paarl Rocks, was asked about Viljoen's absence from the playing XI. To which Faf replied, "Viljoen is not playing today because he's lying in bed with my sister, as they got married yesterday." 

Viljoen, who has played one Test for South Africa in 2016, has featured in various T20 leagues around the globe. Notably, he had been in a long-term relationship with Rhemi, a brand marketing professional. The duo announced their engagement in April 2019, followed by a private wedding later that year.
