Since the video went viral on social media, netizens have expressed surprise over Hardik Pandya's request for tequila shots at the grand wedding event. Many wondered how the Ambani family could serve tequila at such a public event.
Here's how netizens reacted to Hardik asking for tequila shots
Hardik Pandya arrived at the Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's wedding with his brother Krunal Pandya, sister-in-law Pankhuri Sharma and Ishan Kishan. Pandya attended Anant and Radhika's sangeet ceremony earlier this month.
Meanwhile, Hardik Pandya played a vital role in helping Team India clinched the T20 World Cup 2024 triumph. He was one of the heroes for the Men in Blue in the Final against South Africa, where he defended 16 runs off 6 balls by conceding just 8 runs and picking two wickets of David Miller and Kagiso Rabada.
Hardik Pandya likely to Team India in T20Is against Sri Lanka
Hardik Pandya is among the senior players who have been rested from the ongoing T20I series against Zimbabwe. The star all-rounder is likely to return to action for the upcoming T20I series against Sri Lanka.
After the conclusion of the T20I series against Zimbabwe, the Men in Blue will travel to Sri Lanka to play three T20Is and as many ODIs, starting on July 27. Since Rohit Sharma retired from the T20Is after leading to Team India to a T20 World Cup triumph, Hardik is likely to step in as a skipper for the T20is against Sri Lanka.
Hardik Pandya led Team India in the absence of Rohit Sharma, who took a break from the T20Is after the Men in Blue's semifinal defeat against England in the T20 World Cup 2022.
Pandya has captained India in 16 T20Is, winning 10 and losing 5 matches and has a success rate of 65.52%.
