Deepak Hooda and Krunal Pandya don’t share a great history. During the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy last year, Hooda had alleged Baroda captain Krunal Pandya of misbehavior and bullying. Deepak Hooda then moved out of the Baroda bio-bubble and joined the Rajasthan team to play domestic cricket.

But IPL 2022 have witnessed lots of twists. Ravichandran Ashwin was accused of Mankading Jos Buttler, but both them ended up in Rajasthan Royals. Even Krunal and Deepak Hooda ended up being in the same team of Lucknow Super Giants. As the duo is playing as a team, both of them seemed to have joined hands and are enjoying their team’s success.

Hooda is the top run scorer in the LSG camp and had scored a brilliant half-century against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. In an interview with the Dainik Jagran, Deepak Hooda opened up about his relationship with Krunal.

“Krunal Pandya is like my brother, and brother do fight. We are playing with one aim, which is to win games for LSG,” said Hooda.

When he was asked about his reactions when he got to know his will play with Krunal in the same team, he said: “I was not watching the IPL auction. We met just like the other players at the team hotel. Whatever happened is in the past, and as I said, we both are playing for the same team and our goals, too, are the same.”

He also spoke about the upcoming T20 World Cup in Australia and his preparations to get selected in the national team.

“Just like everyone even my dream is to represent India at World Cup, however, my job is to deliver good performances and leave the rest for the selectors to decide.”

“I’m an all-rounder and along with the bat, my target is to perform well with the ball too and I don’t think anything else apart from this.” Hooda said.
