Mumbai Indians all-rounder Krunal Pandya took to social media to post a picture of himself and his brother Hardik Pandya clad in PPE kits. The picture was taken before the duo, along with the rest of the Mumbai Indians squad, were to take off for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to partake in the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Along with the PPE kits, Hardik was wearing a face mask, gloves and eye protection goggles. Meanwhile, Krunal put on a face shield in addition to the other protective gears.
Krunal tweeted the picture with the caption:
“We’re getting used to our new travel kit. UAE, here we come.”

Both all-rounders are an integral part of the Mumbai Indians’ middle order. Hardik bowls fast-medium and Krunal sends down left-arm orthodox, while both can strike lusty blows with the bat.
The official Twitter account of the Mumbai Indians also posted a picture of the team members seated in a bus before boarding the aircraft. The caption of the post read:
“Two points to those who can guess all members of our #One Family present in this frame!”
