Premier Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya took to his Instagram handle and posted a heartfelt message for his elder brother Krunal Pandya on his 30th birthday on March 24, 2021.
Krunal Pandya, who made his ODI debut for Team India against England in the first ODI was one of the reasons behind hosts clinching the first match by 66 runs.
The southpaw smashed a 26-ball fifty, the fastest for any cricketer on his debut, and then later took a wicket with the ball, helping his team to seal the first match.
Krunal’s performance a day before his birthday made everyone emotional including his younger brother Hardik Pandya, who posted a beautiful message for his elder brother after his heroics on debut. The former also dedicated his innings to his father who passed away in January.

However, on the occasion of Krunal’s birthday, Hardik Pandya posted a heartfelt message for his elder brother, saying that he is lucky to have him by his side.
"We’re on this journey together bhai right from the start. The highs, the lows, I’m lucky to have you by my side. Happy birthday big bro," Hardik Pandya captioned the video.
In a video posted by junior Pandya, he recalled all the tough times they faced in life, with some clips and photos in the foreground and Bollywood song ‘Tere jaise yaar kahan' by legendary Kishore Kumar in the background.
