Team India all-rounder Hardik Pandya is spending some fun time with his family after the conclusion of the four-match Test series versus England, which the hosts won 3-1 to seal their spot in the World Test Championship final. Hardik didn’t get to play a single game but spent some valuable time with the team as he aims to make a comeback in the longest format of the game following a back injury.
He, however, looked in a jovial mood despite not getting a game against England in his photos, which he posted on his social media account. The 27-year-old took to Instagram to share a photo with his son Agastya and captioned the photo: “Rest day with the best company”. Hardik could be seen lifting his son up as Agastya smiled all the way. The fans absolutely loved the warm interaction between the father-son duo and wished them well.
Hardik also posted a photo with his wife Natasa Stankovic where the pair could be seen posing on the staircase. Natasa was seen wearing a pink dress and a hat while Hardik looked dapper in an all-black look, white sneakers and sunglasses.
The pair had tied the knot on May 31, 2020 in a lockdown-style wedding and soon after Natasa gave birth to the baby boy on July 30. Earlier, the pair had got engaged on January 1, 2020.
Hardik is currently in Ahmedabad with the team where he is likely to feature for the Men in Blue in the limited-overs series against the Three Lions. The two teams will play five T20Is at the Narendra Modi Stadium from March 12 to March 20 and it will be followed by three ODIs from March 23 to March 28 at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune.
The Baroda all-rounder last featured for India in Australia, where he played three ODIs and T20Is each before flying back home.
He had scored 210 runs and picked up a wicket in the three-match ODI series, which India lost 1-2. In the T20Is, he scored 78 runs as India won the three-match series 2-1.
