All-rounder Hardik Pandya, who led Team India during the Ireland series and also in the fifth and final T20I against West Indies, has been relishing the responsibility given to him.
Starting from IPL 2022, where he led the debutants Gujarat Titans to the title, to his all-round performance for the national side, he has been making winning contributions.
As the team now gears up for the upcoming Asia Cup, former India wicketkeeper and ex-chief of the selection committee, Kiran More praised Hardik Pandya for getting his fitness level up to be able to bowl four overs in addition to his batting and said that players like him are always needed in the team. "Yes, definitely.
The way Hardik Pandya has got back in form, bowling to 140-147 km. When the captain gets such a player in the team who can bowl 4 overs and take wickets as well as gets runs for the team and a finisher as well, such players are needed in the team," said Kiran More on Star Sports show 'Follow The Blues'.
