No cricketer has had quite the kind of risqué love life as that of Shane Warne. The sheikh of tweak was married to Simon Callahan in 1995 and the couple divorced in 2006. In between there were three children and numerous sex scandals. Warne was accused of sending lewd text messages to a woman while on tour in South Africa. However, the woman who made the claims was subsequently charged with extortion.

Jacques Kallis isn't considered to be the best all-rounder just for his batting and bowling skills alone. The South African legend has managed to attract more than his share of women and most of them have happened to be famous models. Kallis has been going steady with Sports Illustrated model Shamone Jardim for the past few years but prior to that he dated beauty queens Marisa Eggli and Cindy Nell. His liaison with Nell garnered much media attention and he was even engaged to the former Miss South Africa and Miss Universe runner-up. The love fizzled out and Nell is now expecting her second child with husband Clive Roberts.
If Kallis has a penchant for beauty queens then Sri Lanka's Sanath Jayasuriya hasn't hid his fascination for air hostesses. The 1996 World Cup star has been married thrice and all his wives have been flight attendants for Sri Lankan Airlines. Talk about having a type! Jayasuriya's marriage to first wife Sumudu Karunanayake lasted only 6 months. He then had a long-lasting union with Sandra De Silva with whom he has 3 children. In November 2012 he married Maleeka Sirisenage who has also forayed into acting. Let's hope that the Matara Mauler is third time lucky.
The cricket world's most famous split of recent years has to be that of Michael Clarke and Lara Bingle. Clarke was engaged to the Australian model and the high profile couple were almost always in the public eye . The pair broke up following the release of nude photo of Bingle during the Australian tour of New Zealand in March 2010. Clarke, then vice-captain, left the tour midway to return to Sydney and sort out 'personal issues'. Bingle gave a paid interview to a magazine and that was apparently the tipping point for the young Aussie. He ended his engagement and Bingle moved out of their plush Bondi beach home. In the process Clarke managed to resurrect his career and win back favour with Australian cricket administration. He was later appointed captain of Australia and has since married model and TV presenter Kyly Boldy.Source: Fun Duniya With Inputs.
