“He should play whatever T20 cricket there is”- Ravi Shastri gives important advice to Hardik Pandya to improve his fitness
Former Team India head coach Ravi Shastri has advised Hardik Pandya to improve his fitness. He has asked Pandya to focus especially on bowling fitness. 30-year-old Hardik has had to struggle with injuries many times in his 8-year career. Last year, Hardik had to be out of the ODI World Cup midway due to an ankle injury. At the same time, Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar also cited Hardik’s fitness as the reason behind removing him from the T20 captaincy. In a conversation with ICC, Ravi Shastri has advised Hardik Pandya that he should play as many T20s as possible to make a comeback in the ODI team. Shastri said, “In my opinion, it is very important that he continues to play. I believe that match fitness is important. So he should play as much T20 cricket as possible. And if he is fit and feeling better, then he should also come in the ODI team.” Meanwhile, Shastri also stressed on Pandya bowling his full quota of overs in ODI cricket. He said, “If you have a player who is bowling only 3-4 overs instead of 10 overs in ODIs, it disturbs the balance of the team. If you bowl 7-8 overs in most of the matches and the way Pandya bats, it becomes a bonus for the team.” Hardik was sidelined from Test cricket in 2018 due to a back injury. He recovered without surgery and was included in the 2019 ODI World Cup squad, but the injury resurfaced later that year and he had to undergo surgery that year. He later returned to the field in 2021, but was included in the T20 World Cup squad only as a batsman, which cost the Indian team dearly. More recently, Hardik suffered an ankle injury during India’s fourth game in the ODI World Cup last year, which kept him away from cricket for a long time. He then returned as captain in IPL 2024 but his performance this season was very poor. He made a brilliant comeback in the T20 World Cup last month with a brilliant all-round performance, including the final match, where he dismissed the dangerous Heinrich Klaasen and then David Miller in the death overs to guide the team to victory.

After failing in IPL, Hardik no longer gets respect in Team India, former Sri Lankan cricketer gave a shocking statement
After Gautam Gambhir became the new coach, Hardik had to lose the captaincy of the Indian team in the T20 format. Hardik Pandya (Photo Source: BCCI) About a month ago, when the Indian cricket team won the title of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain of that team India. However, after the departure of Rahul Dravid and Gautam Gambhir becoming the new head coach of Team India, Hardik has lost the captaincy of the T20 format. The Indian cricket team management has shown faith in experienced Suryakumar Yadav instead of Hardik Pandya, which is considered to be the beginning of a new era for Surya and Gambhir. Along with this, the responsibility of vice-captaincy has been handed over to young Shubman Gill. So, when Mumbai Indians made Hardik Pandya the captain in place of Rohit Sharma in a dramatic manner before the start of IPL 2024, it was not liked not only by cricket experts but also by MI fans. Whenever Hardik came to the field to toss or bat, he had to face boos. So Mumbai Indians could not do anything special under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya and finished the tournament at number 10. On the other hand, now Hardik Pandya will be seen playing on India’s tour of Sri Lanka from July 27. But before the start of this tour of Team India, a big statement of former Sri Lankan cricketer Russell Arnold has come to the fore. Russell Arnold made a big statement Let us tell you that before India’s tour against Sri Lanka started, Russell Arnold, as quoted by Sports Tak, said – Both (Surya and Hardik) are exceptional players. They bring different things to the team. Suryakumar Yadav is one of the best T20 batsmen. The way he plays, it seems that no one reads the game better than him. Arnold further said- Hardik has also shown these things. But I think that after the way his IPL 2024 went, he has not been able to get the kind of respect in Team India, which BCCI must have thought about him at one time.

“I am not surprised…”- Ashish Nehra said on Hardik Pandya not getting the captaincy
Ashish Nehra and Hardik Pandya. (Photo Source: Getty Images) Former India fast bowler and Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra said that he is not surprised by the Indian team management’s decision not to appoint Hardik Pandya as the new T20 captain. Nehra said that he understands the thinking of chief selector Ajit Agarkar and newly appointed coach Gautam Gambhir in choosing Suryakumar Yadav as the new T20 captain. Hardik Pandya, who will lead India in T20 in 2023, was Rohit Sharma’s deputy in the victorious World Cup campaign in the USA and West Indies in June. While Hardik was expected to replace Rohit as T20 captain, later after Rohit’s retirement from T20, the BCCI announced Suryakumar as the new T20 captain for the upcoming three-match series in Sri Lanka. Ashish Nehra is not surprised by Hardik Pandya not being made captain Regarding Hardik not being made the captain, Ashish Nehra said, “No, I am not surprised. When it comes to cricket, such things keep happening. Yes, Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain in the World Cup, but at the same time, a new coach has also come. Every coach and every captain has different ideas. At this time, his (Gambhir’s) ideas are in the same direction.” The former Indian fast bowler further said, “I think Ajit Agarkar and Gautam Gambhir have made it clear, it is good. He is a format game There have been fewer ODIs game Hardik Pandya will continue to be a very important player for Indian cricket in white-ball cricket. When you have him, you can have 4 fast bowlers. He brings a different balance to the team and keep in mind, there is no more dominant player in international cricket. Not just Hardik Pandya, but when you have so many matches, there are changes. Even Rishabh Pant has captained, KL Rahul has also captained.
Before the start of the T20 series, there was a heated argument between Hardik and Nair, the matter was resolved like this
Hardik Pandya (Photo Source: Sri Lanka’s tour of India will mark the beginning of a new era of Indian cricket under the leadership of head coach Gautam Gambhir. This is India’s first major series after the victory in the T20 World Cup. Some big decisions were taken in the Indian team before the tour. The biggest decision of which was to make Suryakumar Yadav the captain of T20I in place of Hardik Pandya. Regarding this, Ajit Agarkar told that Suryakumar Yadav has been appointed captain considering the fitness of Hardik Pandya. Meanwhile, the Indian team has reached Sri Lanka for the T20 series and they held their first practice session there on Tuesday. Hardik Pandya was seen in a jovial mood during the first practice session. He had fun with the new assistant coach Abhishek Nair. In fun, he got into a fight with Nair over the boundary. Let us tell you what happened between the two. Hardik Pandya clashed with Abhishek Nair during practice session Hardik interacted with head coach Gautam Gambhir during the training session. He practiced against two openers – Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill, who were asked to attack all the bowlers in the 40-minute net session. Hardik then practiced batting under the supervision of Nair, who later put him in match situations. A reporter from RevSportz was present during the shadow practice. The reporter said that Hardik hit a shot towards point and immediately claimed that it was a boundary. Nair disagreed and said that he had placed a fielder in that area. When Hardik asked about the exact placement of the fielder, Nair pointed to the spot where the reporter wearing a red T-shirt was standing. When Nair asked the reporter about the shot on Hardik’s insistence, he said, “If you have placed your fielder here, then it is a boundary.” Nair and Hardik laughed at this funny answer. Nair mistook the reporter for a fan, after which Hardik clarified. Hardik eventually won the practice match and at the end of two practice sessions, he also interacted with the reporter.
This former Baroda coach lashed out at Hardik Pandya for not participating in domestic cricket
Hardik is often criticized for not participating in domestic cricket. Hardik Pandya (Image Credit- Twitter X) According to the latest media reports, Indian cricket team’s star all-rounder Hardik Pandya may be seen playing for Baroda in the upcoming domestic cricket tournament Vijay Hazare Trophy. During this time, the selectors of the Indian cricket team will be seen keeping a close eye on the all-rounder and his fitness. It is worth noting that Hardik often faces criticism for not participating in domestic cricket. He was last seen playing T20 cricket for Baroda in the year 2016, while he last played a first class match for his domestic team in the year 2018. However, since 2015, he has been seen playing IPL continuously, and during this time he emerged as an important player for Team India. At the same time, Pandya played an important role in Team India’s victory in the recently concluded ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. On the other hand, former Baroda cricket team coach Dav Whatmore has been seen criticizing the star player for not participating in domestic cricket. Whatmore says that Baroda’s star cricketer no longer plays for Baroda. Dav Whatmore lashed out at Hardik Pandya Let us tell you that recently while talking on a Pakistani YouTube channel Pak Passion, Dav Whatmore said – There are still some players who do not play white ball cricket. For example, in my last few years at Baroda, Hardik Pandya has never played white ball cricket. I am always surprised that he is called Baroda’s all-rounder, but he has not played for Baroda for years. This is something he is doing. Whatmore further said – But recently I have seen that BCCI wants cricketers to play in the other two formats along with Ranji Trophy, to ensure that they are watching cricket as cricket.
Ajit Agarkar doubts Hardik Pandya’s captaincy ability, this is why he was stripped of the captaincy
According to a Hindustan Times report, BCCI chief selector, Ajit Agarkar was unsure about Pandya’s ability as a captain as he noted flaws in his captaincy with GT and MI in the IPL. Notably, the all-rounder was also named as India’s vice-captain for the World Cup 2023 and had to leave the tournament midway after getting injured in a match against Bangladesh. Gautam Gambhir is not sure about Hardik Pandya’s bowling in ODI format However, he has captained India in 16 T20Is and three ODIs when permanent skipper Rohit Sharma was not available. The 30-year-old sought a break from the upcoming white-ball tour after a tough T20 World Cup campaign but the management turned down the request. He has been included in the T20I squad and earlier, head coach, Gautam Gambhir reportedly expected the cricketer to prove his bowling fitness to stay in the ODI format. Gambhir had expressed uncertainty about Pandya’s fitness to bowl 10 overs in ODIs and asked the right-arm pacer to play in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Mumbai Indians’ new captain Hardik Pandya has not played any ODIs since the World Cup 2023 and has also not been included in the 50-over squad for the Sri Lanka tour. India will play three ODIs and as many T20Is against Sri Lanka, with the first T20I starting on July 27. To everyone’s surprise, BCCI has dropped Ruturaj Gaikwad and Abhishek Sharma from any format for the Sri Lanka tour and Riyan Parag is part of both squads.
