Pandya’s Efforts In Vain
On a day when Kapil Dev played an innings of 175*, 34 years back in World Cup 1983 against Zimbabwe, Pandya came in with a mission but a silly run out marked an end to Pandya’s innings.
It was looking like Hardik will win this game on his own, as he was smashing each and every bowler for boundaries. Runs were coming at will for Hardik and there was an assumption that Hardik might win this one alone but after the runout, it was the end for India and the defending champions were dismissed after just adding up six runs more to the total, to hand Pakistan Champions Trophy, a first time for them in history.
