- Hardik Pandya Emerging Among the finest all-rounders around:
The fact that Virat Kohli and head coach Ravi Shastri have so much confidence in the skills of Hardik Pandya, it calls for a clear reason. In little time, Pandya has made his offerings a crystal clear, as he has emerged as a genuine match-winner for the men in blue, ever since his ODI debut.
His improvement as a power hitting all-rounder has been among the finest tales in Indian cricket for quite a while now, and the upcoming ODI series will present him with another opportunity to showcase his class.
As a bold prediction, it can be said that the next five games, could be all about Pandya, and what he has to offer to the side as a pacer, and of course, as a finisher. If he manages to perform exceptionally with the bat, don’t be surprised to find Pandya a spot higher from later series’ onwards.
