It appears that India’s star all-rounder Hardik Pandya is set to make a comeback in Test cricket. Currently in England, Pandya has been practicing with the red ball.
The medium-fast bowler played a Test match in September 2018, accumulating 523 runs and 17 wickets in 11 Tests. Reports suggest that coach Gautam Gambhir aims to prepare Pandya for the upcoming five-Test series against Australia.
Hardik Pandya is a prominent Indian cricketer known for his dynamic all-rounder capabilities. Born on October 11, 1993, in Surat, Gujarat. In fact, Pandya is well-known for his explosive batting, effective medium-fast bowling, and athletic fielding.
He made his international debut in January 2016 in a Twenty20 International (T20I) against Australia and quickly became a key player for India across formats.
Known for his aggressive batting style, Pandya can turn games around with his power-hitting, particularly in the middle and lower order.
Pandya has played a crucial role in India’s limited-overs success, including the 2017 Champions Trophy and the 2018-19 ODI series against Australia. Despite his success in limited-overs formats, his Test career has been intermittent.
