[Watch] Hardik Pandya shares heartwarming video with son Agastya and nephew Kavir
Team India all-rounder Hardik Pandya shared an endearing video with his son Agastya and nephew Kavir on social media on Monday, October 7. He also posted a picture with the two kids and included a touching caption.
Pandya is a part of the Indian T20I squad for the three-match home series against Bangladesh. He was rested for the ODI series in Sri Lanka but featured in the T20Is.
The 30-year-old confirmed his divorce with Natasa Stankovic in July this year, ending speculations around their relationship. He reunited with his son Agastya for the first time after his separation towards the end of last month and has been spending some quality time with him recently.
On Monday, Pandya shared a short clip and a picture of him having some fun with his son and nephew. In the cute video, the latter is seen sitting on Pandya's shoulder and playfully pulling his ears. The post seems to be from a school function, but the same cannot be verified. Pandya shared the post with a caption which read:
"Got my hands full (of love) ❤️."

The all-rounder's brother Krunal replied to the post with two red heart emojis.
Hardik Pandya broke Virat Kohli's record during IND vs BAN 2024 1st T20I
Pandya was in impressive form in the first T20I against Bangladesh at the New Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium in Gwalior on Sunday, October 6. Bowling first after winning the toss, India bowled out Bangladesh for 127 in 19.5 overs.
Pandya top-scored for the Men in Blue in the chase, smashing an unbeaten 39 off 16. The right-handed batter's knock featured five fours and two sixes, which included a no-look boundary off Taskin Ahmed that went viral. The aggressive batter brought up the win with a six in the same over.
The end of the match also coincided with the all-rounder breaking a record of Virat Kohli. The 30-year-old has now won a T20I for India with a six on five occasions, going past Kohli's four. Before his blitz with the bat, Pandya also chipped in with the ball, registering figures of 1-26 from four overs.
India won the first T20I in Gwalior by seven wickets, chasing down a target of 128 in just 11.5 overs. The second match will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on October 9.
