The Indian Premier League is a big tournament and there are hundreds of individuals involved in the tournament. While it is natural that family members are involved in the ownership of a franchise, when it comes to the cricket part of IPL, as well, there are pairs of family members involved in the competition. In this article, we take a look at five pairs from the same family who are part of IPL 2022.
In the past, we have seen the likes of the Pathan brothers and Morkel brothers play an important role for their respective teams in the same campaign. We have found a few occurrences in the ongoing season, as well. They are listed in the below section:
1) Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya (Siblings)
Hardik is a player in Gujarat Titans while Krunal is a player in Lucknow Super Giants
The Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya combination has been present in the competition for a few years now. While they represented the same outfit for all these years, things have changed in IPL 2022. They are part of the newly arrived teams and both are doing well. Hence, the family will be proud of their achievements.
2) Anmolpreet Singh and Prabhsimran Singh (Cousins)
Anmolpreet is a player in Mumbai Indians while Prabhsimran is a player in Punjab Kings
The Patiala cousins are part of this list of pairs from the same family who are part of IPL 2022. Not many know that the Punjab duo are from the same family. Both these cricketers also played a couple of games this season. However, they could not leave an impression.
3) Sachin Tendulkar and Arjun Tendulkar (Father and son)
Sachin is the mentor of Mumbai Indians while Arjun is a player in Mumbai Indians
This pair is also very popular in the league. While Sachin has been part of MI ever since the tournament’s inception, Arjun has become a recent part of the team. It needs to be seen if Arjun gets a game or two now that MI has been eliminated from IPL 2022.
4) Marco Jansen and Duan Jansen (Siblings)
Marco is a player in Sunrisers Hyderabad while Duan is a net bowler in Mumbai Indians
The South African duo is part of this list of pairs from the same family who are part of IPL 2022. In South Africa, the Jansen brothers are rated very highly. While Marco has already set the international scene on fire, his twin brother is also a good bowler and is likely to make his international debut in the near future.
5) Michael Hussey and David Hussey (Siblings)
Michael is the batting coach of Chennai Super Kings while David is the mentor of Kolkata Knight Riders
This is the only pair from the same family that does not include an active playing member. Nevertheless, at their respective franchise, the Hussey brothers hold an important role and have been part of those teams for a while now. Hence, they are also a part of this list.
