IPL 2022: Hardik Pandya says his name 'always sells, no problem with it'
Hardik Pandya has seen it all -- highs and lows, injuries, surgery, being embroiled in controversies -- but he says he faces them with a smile. Putting behind all these, Hardik has shone not just as an all-rounder but as a leader, taking an under-rated Gujarat Titans to the final in a dream IPL debut season. "People always talk, that's their job. I can't help," Hardik said in a virtual media interaction after leading the Titans to a seven-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals on Tuesday night to seal a final berth. "The name 'Hardik Pandya' always sells. I've no problem with it, I just take it easy with a smiling face." After making his international debut in 2016 following his success with Mumbai Indians, expectations skyrocketed with Hardik as he was compared with the legendary World Cup-winning India skipper Kapil Dev.
