Talking about the same with the Bombay Times, Hardik Pandya’s father said, “Natasa is a very nice girl, and we have met her in Mumbai on a number of occasions. We knew that they were going on a vacation to Dubai, but had no clue that they were going to get engaged. This took us by surprise. We came to know about it after they got engaged.”
Hardik is currently going through the rehabilitation 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. He 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.
Hardik played his last international match when he featured in a T20I match against South Africa in September 2019.
