Win Projections to be updated soon
Cricket enthusiasts of India are enjoying the thrilling flavor of IPL 2024. This season is also showing its excitement. Before the season started, a buzz was created over Hardik Pandya’s trade to Mumbai. But the buzz took a turn as Hardik failed to impress as a captain and even as an all-rounder. After watching him struggle in the tournament, former Indian player Irfan Pathan made a big remark about him.
Hardik’s Struggle and Irfan Pathan’s Remark:
Just before the auction, Hardik Pandya was traded from Mumbai Indians to Gujarat Titans. That created buzz. When he was appointed as the captain of the team, the criticism got even more stronger. When the season started, Hardik Pandya was seen struggling while showing his all-around ability. Even questions were raised over his captaincy. In recent matches, he was seen struggling to score big runs in crucial moments.
Apart from struggling with the ball, Hardik’s failure while playing an impactful knock in a crucial situation is getting noticed. That is not a good sign. After witnessing his form, former Indian player Irfan Pathan made a big remark on him. He said, “Hardik Pandya’s hitting ability is going down. That’s a big worry on a larger picture. At the wankhede he is different but on pitches where there is little help is what is worrisome for him.”
Hardik’s Struggle is a Concern:
Hardik Pandya was one of the finest all-rounders of team India. But in recent times, he has been struggling. Especially in this IPL, he was seen struggling. In crucial moments, when MI needed him in the all-rounder’s role, he struggled. Even in the match against Rajasthan Royals, his struggle while hitting big runs came under scrutiny. MI was losing wickets frequently and at that point, he was dismissed scoring 10 runs in 10 balls.
In this time, hard-hitting style is missing. After the IPL, the T20 World Cup is all set to raise its curtains. India will start their campaign on June 5. If Hardik gets selected for the squad, his hard-hitting skills will be crucial for the team. Team India’s squad is yet to be announced. Fans are anticipating a successful campaign.
