After India's triumphant T20 World Cup victory, the players have returned home to celebrate with their loved ones. Captain Rohit Sharma arrived late Thursday night, while star batter Virat Kohli flew to London to reunite with his family.
Hardik Pandya, India's vice-captain, received a surprise visit from young keeper-batter Ishan Kishan. A viral video captured the heartwarming moment as the two shared a hug and Kishan kissed Pandya on both cheeks.
"Good meri jaan. Very good, love you," Kishan exclaimed, while Pandya laughed in amusement.
The bromance between Pandya and Kishan has become a social media sensation. During a recent interaction with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Pandya reflected on the past six months, revealing that he had maintained his composure despite facing adversity.
"The last 6 months have been very entertaining for me, there have been a lot of ups and downs and the public booed me. A lot of things happened and I always felt that if I give any answer, it would be through sports... So I believed that I would stay strong, will work hard," Pandya said.
Despite being mercilessly trolled during the Indian Premier League, Pandya played a pivotal role in India's World Cup victory, notably dismissing Heinrich Klaasen.
Meanwhile, Kishan, who is currently without a BCCI central contract, was omitted from the T20 World Cup and Zimbabwe T20I squads. He was reportedly dropped from the central contracts list after refusing to play domestic cricket.
