Mumbai: Indian cricketers Hardik and Krunal Pandyas’ father, Himanshu Pandya, passed away at the age of 71 on Saturday morning due to a cardiac arrest.
Hardik, who had returned home after limited over series against Australia last month, was as home at the time of his father breathing his last. Elder brother Krunal, who was leading the Baroda team in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Trophy, has also left the tournament mid-way to reach back home.
India captain Virat Kohli and several other players of the fraternity extended condolences to Hardik and Krunal.
