Talking about the batting order of Hardik Pandya and Tim David, Sehwag said that- “When hardik pandya When he was the captain of Gujarat, he batted continuously at number four. so when he Mumbai What happened when Indians came? I am surprised to see experienced players coming in to bat so late and lower down the order. The team management should take strict action against the players and seek answers from them as to what is really happening and why the batting order has been changed. Here the team captain, batting coach, bowling coach and support staff are all guilty. Team owners need to take a tough stance.” Are Hardik-David such bad players? – Sehwag Regarding sending Pandya and David to bat late, Sehwag said- “KKR had saved Andre Russell for the last overs. But why did Mumbai Indians send Hardik Pandya and Tim David late. What did you get from it? There were still many balls and wickets left. You should have either come to bat early and finished the match early. I don’t understand what they do in the end. Are they (Pandya and David) such bad players that if they come to bat early they will get out?”
