I know it’s tough and I know they probably lost a lot of their mental energy after their performance with the bat in the first innings scoring a lot and they lost the second innings, but Edgbaston is important for learning.” Ahead of the series against South Africa, Bishop urged the team to stay motivated, build confidence and learn from their experiences. He said- “The Richard Boultham Trophy goes to England, but then there is the South Africa series as well. So you know one by one that you represent the people of the West Indies. Every game you play with pride. And that should be enough to give you energy and if that is not enough, you are going to play against South Africa in less than a week or about a week later. And you want to go there with confidence. So there is still a lot to learn playing for a team that is still learning.”
Hardik Pandya is a strong person and has moved on from the IPL setback: Ian Bishop

Mumbai won 4 out of 14 matches played in IPL 2024 under the captaincy of Hardik, while they had to face defeat in 10 matches. The team finished last in the points table.

However, now he is present with the Indian cricket team for the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024.

Bishop further said- So, I want the fans to look at it from a different perspective. Fans have the right to express their opinion, and they can express their opinion as they see fit. I am sure that he has reached the biggest stage of international cricket and his full picture is in front of us. He is a strong person.
