Baroda all-rounder Krunal Pandya has earned to the national team for the three-match ODI series against England starting from March 23 in Pune. Meanwhile, one day prior to the team selection, the cricketer shared a throwback video of his and his wife – Pankhuri Sharma dancing to a famous Bollywood number.
The All-India National Selection committee headed by former cricketer Chetan Sharma announced an 18-member squad for the ODI series. Suryakumar Yadav and Prasidh Krishna earned debut calls while Krunal Pandya was recalled to the limited-overs squad as Ravindra Jadeja continues to nurse the injury he suffered during the Test series against Australia.
