IPL: Brother Krunal Pandya took Hardik Pandya’s wicket, Lucknow’s ‘Pandya’ caught
Hardik and Krunal Pandya were only part of Mumbai Indians (MI) till the last season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Both the players were released by Mumbai before the mega auction of the IPL 2022 season.
Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya are considered to be extremely competitive against each other during the match between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in IPL 2022. This was visible on Monday as well.
Hardik landed in fourth-order
Hardik had already completed his quota of overs, so he did not get a chance to bowl with his brother Krunal. But left-arm spinner Krunal had a chance to bowl to the Titans captain. Hardik Pandya came out to bat at number four for Titans in the third over after falling two wickets early. He along with Matthew Wade provided momentum to the innings.
Manish Pandey caught
To break this partnership, Lucknow captain KL Rahul put Krunal Pandya in the attack. On the first ball of his third over, Krunal took the wicket of Hardik. With the required run rate rising, the pressure on Hardik and Wade was mounting. In such a situation, Hardik tried to play an aggressive shot against his brother, but he could not time the ball and was caught by Manish Pandey at long-off.
After dismissing younger brother Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya hides his mouth with his hands and got emotional. At the same time, Hardik looked quite disappointed after getting out. Hardik contributed 33 runs in 28 balls. This stunning video is now viral on social media.
Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya were only part of Mumbai Indians (MI) till last season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Both the players were released by Mumbai Indians before the mega auction of the IPL 2022 season. Hardik was bought by Gujarat Titans, while his elder brother Krunal Pandya bagged a contract of Rs 8.25 crore with Lucknow Super Giants.
