Many people know Sunny Leone for the many different hats that she wears in her career. She has spent her time as an adult film star, a Bollywood actress and even a TV host, as she has been hosting MTV Splitsvilla 8 for the last couple of seasons. Now the star is about to add another impressive title onto her resume. That's right, Leone will be participant on a brand new reality series, where it has actually just been confirmed that she just bought a sports team, cricket to be exact, as one of the challenges of the show.

Leone can now add the team owner to her already impressive list of accolades. According to Times of India, the actress has joined a new competition series, where she will be teamed with other Bollywood stars like Mouni Roy, Rithwik Dhanjani and Sangram Singh, as they are pitted against other well known celebs.

Fans might be surprised to know that the porn star turned actress has a fair share of knowledge about the sport, telling the site that she has been following the European sport since she moved to India.

"People in India love cricket and I have grown extremely fond of the game ever since I moved here," Leone explained, according to Bollywood Life. "I have been closely associated with sports all my life and this is a great way for me to reconnect with it."

Yet, while she might have started following it since moving to the country, she does say that she is going to leave all the competing to the players on the field, as she isn't that great at it.

"Since I am not very good at it, I will leave all the playing to the players," she explained, adding that she wouldn't be surprised if her husband, Daniel Weber, joined in on the fun, according to India West. "He is very outgoing so I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the field, practicing and encouraging our players for their big games."
