Hardik Pandya will like to make a solid comeback.

Kieron Pollard stated that Pandya is a confident character and he has delivered the goods for the Indian team. Pollard has observed Pandya from the close quarters in the Mumbai Indians.

“I have seen him from when he started in Mumbai and I am not surprised. He has turned into an Indian superstar. The way he carries himself and the manner in which Hardik plays emulates how he is off the field and sometimes when you see guys like that, we as individuals who are very conservative tend to always have negative things to say”.

“But, you know, when you are a confident person off the field and you can take that on to the field and perform, I think that shows great mettle in the human itself,” Pollard said.

Pollard stated that Pandya will get better. The all-rounder has worked hard after he was banned for the controversial comments. Meanwhile, Hardik Pandya was rested for the series against the West Indies. However, the all-rounder is back in the T20I squad for the series against South Africa.

“He has gone through a lot in his little time, but he can only get better from here. He puts in a lot of hard work. I am not overly surprised at what he is doing at this point of time.”

On the other hand, Kieron Pollard made a good comeback into competitive cricket in the T20I series against India. The right-hander scored 49, 8* and 58 in the three matches. However, his efforts went in vain as India clinched the series 3-0.

“It was good to make a comeback. For me, once I step on a cricket field, it’s always to perform to the best of my abilities for my team. Let’s see what the future holds in terms of international cricket,” he said.

Meanwhile, Hardik Pandya will like to make a solid comeback when he will play in the T20I series against the Proteas. The first T20I will take place at Dharamshala on 15th September.
