Krunal Pandya takes to Social Media congratulating and appreciating brother, Hardik Pandya’s success in IPL 2022

Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya captained the Gujarat Titans for the first time as he led them to their maiden IPL trophy in their IPL debut season. While Hardik played for his home state, while his brother Krunal Pandya was taken by the other debutants, Lucknow Super Giants. Both new teams performed well in the IPL but it was the Gujarat Titans that lifted the trophy while Lucknow settled for a fourth place finish.

Hardik’s brother Krunal Pandya had nothing but words of praise for his younger brother as he took to Twitter to share love. Krunal congratulated Hardik Pandya on his victory with a captain, ” My bro, Only you know the amount of hard work that’s gone behind this success of yours – early mornings, countless hours of training, discipline and mental strength. And to see you lift the trophy is the fruits of your hard work. You deserve it all and so much more.”

Hardik Pandya became only the 3rd Captain to win Man of the Match award in IPL finals

Hardik Pandya was not just an amazing captain for the Gujarat Titans, but he led from the front. He ended the season as the team’s highest run getter with 487 runs while also picking up 8 wickets. He didn’t disappoint in the finals either as he went in to take 3 crucial wickets in his 4 overs and then batted beautifully to help Gujarat chase down and win the game.

Krunal Pandya also enjoyed a good season with the new franchise. The older Pandya scored 183 runs with the bat while also taking 10 wickets this season. A rather lower output than what he has previously managed to achieve with Mumbai Indians in the past. However, both Pandyas will be extremely happy with their performance this season and especially Hardik who led his team to victory in his first ever season as captain of the side.
