In October and November of this year, India will host the ODI World Cup. This will be the first time the cricket-obsessed nation has hosted the major event alone. India, along with Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, co-hosted the 2011 World Cup, which they ultimately won. Indian fans will be hoping that the pattern that saw host nations win the renowned event in 2015 and 2019 will continue in the upcoming edition. During the 10-team competition, Hardik Pandya was selected by Aakash Chopra as India’s game-changer the former India opener emphasized the value of the all-rounder and how his performance in the high-profile competition might have a significant impact on the team’s outcome.
Let’s establish the fact that he is significant to India. There is only one Hardik Pandya in the entire nation who can bat down the order, bat with the new ball, bowl fast and with the new ball in the middle, and bowl at nearly 140 kph, according to Aakash in a video on his YouTube channel. He has the potential to revolutionize the game, in my opinion. His success is intimately tied to India’s success. He is a very important piece in India’s success, and if we have to win the World Cup, the all-rounders’ performances would be the focus.
There is no one like Hardik, an all-rounder with quick bowling and finishing ability: In the ODIs and T20Is against the West Indies without Rohit Sharma, Chopra Hardik Pandya led the Indian team.
The cricketer for Baroda only scored five and seven runs in the first two ODIs. After getting off to a sluggish start in the third ODI, he performed nicely, finishing with a 52-ball 70*.
Hardik’s performance in the T20Is suffered as he managed just 77 runs in four innings. However, because of his all-around skills, Aakash Chopra predicted that the 29-year-old would have an impact in the World Cup. In the eight white-ball matches that Hardik participated in in the Caribbean, he claimed five wickets.
We look for individuals that resemble him. Shardul Thakur is an all-around bowler who we could acquire. When Vijay Shankar and Shivam Dube are in our sight, they are not bowling. Consequently, you do not obtain an all-arounder of such kind. There is no one like Hardik, an all-rounder with quick bowling and finishing skills.
