Want to Imbibe Kohli’s Hunger to Perform: Krunal Pandya

Written by Abhishek Patil

Baroda all-rounder Krunal Pandya, who found his bearings after joining Mumbai Indians in 2016, has managed to impress the national selectors enough to earn a berth into the Indian side for three-match T20 series against West Indies next month.

“Biggest turning point for me was representing Mumbai Indians,” Krunal told BCCI.tv in an interview.

“From there I have been able to showcase my ability,” he added.

“India A tours are very helpful. In last 2-3 years, I have managed to tour South Africa, New Zealand and England. It’s an advantage because when you tour with the senior team, it’s not alien conditions to you,” the Baroda tweaker said.

“I am obviously looking forward to the West Indies tour. There is a lot of cricket for the rest of the year. Obviously, I want that when I go there, I want to perform consistently with both bat and ball,” he had said before the current ‘A’ tour.
