The wedding and engagement season is on all over the world. A lot of celebrities tied the knot this winter, and the latest to enter that list is India all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who announced that he got engaged to Serbian actress Natasa Stankovic via an Instagram post. “Mai tera, Tu meri jaane, saara Hindustan. 01.01.2020 #engaged,” Hardik Pandya captioned his Instagram post.
Soon after Hardik Pandya shared the news, fans flooded his post with congratulatory messages. Kuldeep Yadav was the first among his teammates to send a wish. On Tuesday, the pacer had posted a picture with the actress, but did not reveal his relationship with her.
The 26-year-old is currently recovering from a back injury and has missed out on the Twenty20 International (T20I) and One-Day International (ODI) series against Bangladesh and the West Indies. In his absence, Mumbai all-rounder Shivam Dube and Tamil Nadu all-rounder Washington Sundar have been getting chances.
Hardik will also miss out on India’s upcoming home series against Sri Lanka and Australia but the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has named him in India A’s squad for the New Zealand tour which is in the end of January.

The Baroda all-rounder last played an international game in a T20I match against South Africa in September 2019, after which he underwent a surgery in London in October to treat his lower back problem. His surgery was a prompt decision and he did not waste time experimenting with physiotherapy. In an interview, he explained, “We thought this was the right time because even if I take four months, I will be coming back before the New Zealand series, mid-way actually,” said the 26-year-old all-rounder.
“That was the plan that I play some international games, the IPL and then the World T20. The biggest concern was the World T20 which touch wood is now in place,” he added.
