IPL 2022: Watch Natasa Stankovic's reaction as Hardik Pandya's bat slips out of his hand

Hardik Pandya's wife Natasa Stankovic has been a constant feature in all of Gujarat Titans' games this IPL season. She has been spotted in the stands, supporting her husband, and the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore was no different. 

As the Gujarat Titans skipper tried to accelerate his inning, during one of his attempts to strike a big shot, Hardik's bat slipped out of his hand and went flying away toward the umpire near the leg side. 

Thankfully the bat landed in no man's land and no harm was done to anyone on the field, the reaction from Hardik's wife Natasa really said it all. She appeared just as shocked as anyone inside the stadium.

Talking about the match, Hardik won the toss and chose to bat first, after which his side lost two early wickets, but they kept insisting and finished with a fight-worthy score of 168/5 in 20 overs. 

While the skipper led from the front as he remained unbeaten at 62, he was also joined by the likes of David Miller (34 off 25) and Rashid Khan (19* off 6).
