Krunal Pandya set to marry his girlfriend

Krunal Pandya, the all-rounder of Mumbai Indians, in Indian Premier League (IPL) is all set to marry his girlfriend in December. The left-hander is an elder brother of the rising star of the Indian team Hardik Pandya. Both of them feature for Mumbai franchise in the lucrative league. However, Krunal is getting padded up for his new innings with Pankhuri Sharma whom he had been dating for last 18 months.

The 26-year-old cricketer is away from the action on the field currently and regaining his fitness. He opted out of the ongoing Ranji Trophy season for Baroda due to few injuries. He is one of the finds of the IPL and most probably will play for India sooner or later given his skills with both bat and ball. He has even troubled the world-class batsman AB de Villiers and has dismissed him frequently whenever he has bowled to him.

Marriage on December 27

Krunal Pandya himself revealed the news of him getting married to his lady love on December 27 in a five-star hotel in Santa Cruz. He was delighted to announce his marriage and was happy for marrying the girl who understands him a lot. “We will marry in a ceremony attended by family members and close relatives. On the same evening, a reception will be organized. I am very happy that I am marrying a girl who is more like a friend and understands me,” he told Times of India in an interview.

He also revealed how the duo met and started liking each other. “She is a friend of my friend. We met at a common gathering two years ago and developed a liking for each other. We both are of same age and get along a lot. What I like about her is her simplicity and supportive nature,” he added.
