IPL 2025: Army Background Shaped My Discipline Towards Fitness, Says KKR’s Manish Pandey
Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) batter Manish Pandey said growing up in an army background played a crucial role in shaping his discipline towards maintaining fitness levels. Apart from his attacking batting, Pandey has earned wide plaudits for his sensational fielding skills, whose base stems from his astute fitness levels.
“Being from an army background, it helped me as a kid because we had the opportunity to play a lot of different sports back then. So, that really helped me as a kid to have that early foundation of the kind of fitness,” said Pandey in an episode of 'Train Like a Knight'.
Pandey, whose lone appearance in IPL 2025 came via making 19 in KKR’s defeat to Mumbai Indians (MI), shed some light on how his typical fitness routine looks like. “I keep it very simple, try and stick to my goals, which is two strength and two cardio sessions in a week.”
