Baroda skipper Krunal Pandya has left the bio-bubble created for Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in Vadodara as the all-rounder’s father died. Krunal Pandya has left the bubble in order to be with his family and as a result, he would not be playing for Baroda in the ongoing Indian T20 tournament. “Yes, Krunal Pandya has left the bubble. It is a personal tragedy, Baroda Cricket Association mourns this loss of Hardik and Krunal,” Baroda Cricket Association CEO Shishir Hattangadi told ANI.
Krunal Pandya has played three matches so far in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq tournament, managing to take four wickets.
Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan took to Twitter to pay condolences to the Pandya family on Saturday.
