Cute Moment Shared Between Krunal Pandya and Nephew
Sports fans are always looking for exciting moments on and off the field. And recently, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) all-rounder Krunal Pandya provided us with one such moment. Krunal Pandya met his nephew Agastya (son of his brother Hardik Pandya) at the Ahmedabad airport on Tuesday, April 25, in a sweet and heartwarming moment.
Krunal had taken some time off between LSG games to be with his family in Ahmedabad. He was seen having a great time with his nephew Agastya and his 9-month-old son Kavir Krunal Pandya.
The Lucknow Super Giants shared a video on their social media handles that showed Krunal being greeted at the airport by his nephew, and then playing with his nephew and son. It was a precious moment for both Krunal and his family.
Krunal Pandya is the elder of the two Pandya brothers, and he married Pankhuri Sharma in 2017. The couple welcomed their first son, Kavir, in July 2022.
Krunal and His Nephew's Last Bonding Moment
The last time that Krunal was spotted with his nephew on social media was in December 2022. The duo was spotted playing cricket and football at an indoor turf stadium, with Krunal documenting the fun on his official Instagram handle.
In the adorable video shared by Krunal, he and Agastya could be seen having a blast together while Agastya's mother and Krunal's brother Hardik Pandya's wife, Natasha Stankovic, looked on. Agastya was seen showcasing his impressive football skills, while Krunal bowled to him during a game of cricket. Later on, Krunal gave his nephew some bowling tips, and Agastya even developed his unique bowling action.
Krunal and the IPL
Recently, Krunal has had an excellent start to the season, scoring 103 runs and picking up six wickets in seven matches. LSG is currently in third position in the points table with four wins from seven matches, while Hardik's Gujarat Titans are fourth with four wins from six games.
Krunal Pandya's recent performance on the field has been impressive as well. He spoke about his enjoyment of bowling on the Lucknow track at the halfway stage of the side's previous game against the Gujarat Titans on Saturday, April 22.
The Ekana Stadium in Lucknow has a bigger boundary size compared to most of the other grounds in India and has favored spinners thus far this season. Krunal Pandya picked up 2/16 in his four overs that helped restrict GT to 135-6 in their 20 overs.
LSG Status
Lucknow Super Giants are currently sitting in third place in the IPL points table, with four wins in seven games. They are set to face Punjab Kings next in the 38th game of the tournament on April 28. Krunal will be looking to continue his excellent performances to help his team secure a victory.
Krunal Pandya is a talented all-rounder who has been contributing to LSG's success this season.
It's also heartening to see the bond between the Pandya brothers and their families. Before the adorable moment between Krunal and his nephew, he was spotted having a touching moment with his brother on the field.
