Divided by teams, United by blood

Pandya Brothers

Both the Pandyas could be seen together dawning the national colours in the near future

Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya has risen through the ranks tremendously in the last 18 months. Considered as the answer to India’s need of a fast-bowling all-rounder, he perfectly used the platform given to him by the Mumbai Indians to fast track into the national side.

A hard hitting batsman who can finish matches, has the ability to bowl 3-4 overs in a T20 match and will make a difference on the field with his fielding skills, Pandya seems to be the package T20 teams across the world sought after.

His talent has been relied upon by the Mumbai team who retained him for the upcoming season of the IPL.

Krunal Pandya

Just like younger brother Hardik, Krunal is also a cricketer who possesses all-round ability. He bowls left-arm orthodox and bats left-handed. He has been a find of the IPL for his recruiters, the Mumbai Indians, who used their RTM to have him in their ranks for IPL 2018.

Krunal, who was Man of the Match in the all important night of the final of IPL 2017, scored a quick fire 47 to take his team to a total that later proved to be 1 run more than their opponents RPS could score.

With the kind of progress he has made, a successful IPL campaign could have him knocking at the doors of the national side, replicating the success of his younger brother.
