"Congratulations Ishu baby on making the World Cup squad ???????? ???? You deserve it ❤️ Love you ???????? @ishankishan51," wrote Krunal.
Hardik, who will also be playing the upcoming T20 World Cup, tweeted that he's proud of Kishan. "So proud of you Ishu baby ???? Congratulations on making the World Cup squad ????????❤️❤️ @ishankishan51," his tweet read.
Currently, Hardik, Krunal, and Kishan are in Abu Dhabi for the preparation of IPL 2021's second phase. They will resume their campaign with a clash against Chennai Super Kings on September 19.
