On Being Potential Captaincy Successor To Rohit Sharma In T20Is, Hardik Pandya Said "There Is..."

The two greats of Indian cricket -- Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli -- called time on their T20I careers with India's T20 World Cup triumph on Saturday. It was an emotional moment for both the players as the two played crucial roles for the national team in the format of the game for quite a long time. Virat led the team in T20Is before stepping down from the role in 2021. Rohit then took over the duties and fared well for India in the post. After India's defeat to England in 2022 World Cup semi-final both Rohit and Virat missed T20I cricket the next year and it was Hardik Pandya, who led the team. Later, Rohit and Virat returned to the format with the former being the captain again.

Sanjay Manjrekar Snubs Virat Kohli From T20 World Cup Post, Draws Flak On Social Media

Former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar shared a heartfelt post after the team's T20 World Cup triumph.

From IPL Flop To T20 WC Hero: Hardik Pandya's Redemption Arc Is Complete

A discussion about Indian cricket team all-rounder Hardik Pandya is hardly ever complete without the mention of the 'TINA' (There Is No Alternative) factor in the past few months. Even when the cricketer was visibly out of form during the IPL 2024, fans and even some experts agreed that it is extremely difficult to drop him due to what he brings to the game. Over the past decade, Hardik gradually established himself as the premier fast-bowling all-rounder in India and even at present, there are not many players who can provide those attributes for the national side. While there were some doubters when he was named vice-captain for the T20 World Cup 2024, his performance and contribution in guiding the Rohit Sharma-led side to their first T20 World Cup title in 17 years really proved that there is really no alternative.

Rohit broke down in tears on the ground while Virat's fist bumps and aggressive celebration once again provided a sneak peek at his competitive attitude.
