Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya and his brother Krunal Pandya after fulfilling their national team obligations have landed in Mumbai to join the Mumbai Indians squad ahead of the Indian Premier League 2021.
The trio was on national duty for the ODI series against England, which India won 2-1 after beating the tourist by seven runs in the third and final match in Pune on Sunday. They travelled to Mumbai from Pune soon after the end of the series.
Mumbai Indians took to Twitter to share the clip of the players landing in the city. Hardik, who played an important knock of 64 off 44 in the 3rd ODI, was wearing Team India’s practice t-shirt. Since they were in a bio-bubble in Pune, the trio might be allowed to skip the mandatory isolation period.
