Sunil was born in Arima of Trinidad and Tobago on May 26, 1988, to a restaurant’s taxi driver Shadeed Narine. His father named him Sunil because he was the fan of great Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar. He was such a die-hard fan of Sunil that he also wanted to name her daughter Sunili because of him but it was his wife Christina who refused to do so.
When Gavaskar used to play crocket in West Indies, Shadeed used to support Indian batsmen instead of cheering his home team. He recognized his son’s interest towards cricket and started his training when he was just 7. Even after being a father of superstar cricketer, Shadeed used to work at the restaurant.
In the year 2013, Sunil tied the knot with Nandita Kumar in Indian style. He earns in crores but even then chooses to lead a simple lifestyle. He is famous for his simplicity. Presently, he lives in a house with two rooms only, which was bought by his father years ago.
