Team India star all-rounder Hardik Pandya knows how to bat. Dhanadhan entertains with shots from the moment he steps into the crease. He bursts out with boundaries and sixes. Strikes at the opposing bowlers like a thunderbolt. While watching, he steals the match from the opposition team. He manipulates the result within seconds. But the second T20 against South Africa was completely different. In this match, Hardik, who came to bat in the sixth down, scored 39 runs in 45 balls.
What is batting?
Hardik, who hit 4 boundaries in the second T20, hit only one six. Pandya, who bats with a huge strike rate, scored 86 runs in yesterday’s match. It was suspected that Hardike was actually playing. At the other end, tailender Arshdeep Singh hit a six, but Hardik’s defensive approach led to criticism. Opinions are being expressed that he batted slowly. Pandya scored only two runs in the first T20. With this, the comments are heard that he has to run in the second match anyway, with the intention of saving his place in the team.
Preparing for IPL?
Pandya scored 7 dots in the last 10 balls played in yesterday’s match. He scored only six runs. This is raining criticism on him. ‘Pandya is not out. He played for himself. Nothing but selfishness was visible. Looks like he is getting ready to play for Mumbai Indians in IPL. He didn’t take singles, even if Arshdeep hit sixes, he didn’t hit shots,’ criticized former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali. Some netizens are making comments on social media saying that Hardik.. such selfishness is useless.. to play for the team.
