Win Projections to be updated soon
Before the much anticipated ODI World Cup, all-rounder Hardik Pandya will need to accumulate runs and rediscover his form in the upcoming Asia Cup or the home series against Australia, according to former India wicketkeeper Parthiv Patel.
It is noteworthy that Hardik only scored 77 runs in the five-match T20I series against the West Indies. In a similar spirit, the former cricketer Parthiv criticized the captain’s disappointing batting performance and some of the judgments he made during the games.
While portraying the role of the national team captain, Parthiv Patel emphasized a specific incident from the series and claimed that the player is still developing. Apart from that, Parthiv also discussed Hardik’s IPL performance and how he failed to produce priceless hits.
“He (Hardik Pandya) surrendered that over to Axar Patel in the match against Nicholas Pooran and failed to bowl Yuzvendra Chahal. India’s captain, Hardik, is still a work-in-progress, according to Parthiv Patel, who spoke to Criketmood about bowling substitutions and bowler usage.
And it’s clear that his hitting raises a few questions. He requires runs. He didn’t score any runs in the IPL, and he also didn’t score any runs in the most recent few series. India would like to give Hardik Pandya some runs in the Asia Cup or the series against Australia prior to the World Cup, he continued.
Inexperienced West Indies squad defeated India in a series.
Notably, Team India suffered a humiliating loss in the fifth and final T20I, which resulted in a 3-2 series loss. Hardik is anticipated to be included in the lineup for both of the major ODI competitions, even though the selection committee has not yet revealed the roster for the Asia Cup and ODI World Cup.
When it comes to the Asia Cup, the Men in Blue will begin their campaign on September 2 when they face off against Pakistan. At Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium on October 8, Rohit Sharma and company will face off against the five-time World Cup champions Australia.
