MI's Kumar Kartikeya Meets Family After 9 Years, 3 Months, Shares Pictures
Mumbai Indians (MI) player Kumar Kartikeya shared pictures of himself with his family following his meeting with them after a period of 9 years and 3 months.

“Met my family and mumma after 9 years 3 months. Unable to express my feelings,” Kartikeya wrote in a Twitter post.

“My mom and dad called me frequently, but I was committed” – Kumar Kartikeya
Kartikeya revealed that his parents tried to contact him on a regular basis but he was committed to the cause and kept going to achieve something in his life.
“I haven’t been home for 9 years. I’d decided to return home only when I achieve something in life. My mom and dad called me frequently, but I was committed. Now, finally, I’ll return home after the IPL.”
“My coach Sanjay sir had suggested my name for Madhya Pradesh. In the first year, my name came up in the Under-23 team as a standby player, and I felt a huge sense of relief to see my name on the list,” Kartikeya had said to Dainik Jagran.
He played for MI against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on April 30th. He played three more games after it and took five wickets in total at a good economy rate of 7.85.
He was also part of the Madhya Pradesh team that defeated Mumbai in the final of the Ranji Trophy season this year.
