Hardik Pandya discussion thread

[Majestic]

Hardik has been a good LOi player for India for 5-6 years now. However, fans should resist before hyping him as he has done well but not exceptionally well.

 

Best ODI Team  whene everyone fully fit:-

 

Rohit

Gill/Dhawan

Kohli

Pant

KLR

Pandya

Jadeja

D Chahar

Shami

Bumrah

Yuzi

50 at 171 sr chasing a big total. Haven't seen from Jadeja. Haven't seen him finishing many in fact. Well done Axar.

His sustainability is still a question. I doubt he can play IPL, ODIs , T20 and tests. Nutrition also plays role here. He did mention about growing up on Maggie noodles.

He is not in contention for tests anyway. Hope he can be injury free for upcoming big tournaments and the '23 WC.

For almost 5 years I have heard he is the second coming of Bradman and Dennis Lillee.

 

He is an total failure. Nothing to show for I was ridiculed when I said he will pick an injury trying to be an allrounder but here we are.

 

Five years later all the time invested has been wasted.

 

Poorest return on investment ever.

Crap innings from Rohit and Top all round match winning performance from Pandya. Great day for zen!  :)

Tailenders have better body language.

thats true

Pandya is a very good in t20s. He may be the first name on the team if he consistently bowls his overs. He is allowed to fail once in a while.

finally a balanced post :) agree. Also in ODIs too even if he can bowl 5-6 overs

 I don't have any agendas.If Pandya does well. I always will give him credit. 

 

Odis it is different story, Pandya is not there yet.

[Vijy]

failed today with bat and ball in a high-pressure game. however, he is not a steady/consistent tuk-tuk player, so some failures are to be expected.

[Khota]

His first over was the breakthrough that Pakistan needed.

His batting failure is ok once in a while.

But his bowling went to dogs too today. That is bad because we cannot rely on him as a main bowler and need a 6th bowler option to complement him. 
Still there are many people in the team ahead of him for getting the coveted "Match ka Mujrim" title.

[Ravi_Shastri]

You can't play with just 5 bowlers and one of them being Pandya. 

He is a sixth bowling option. Going in with 4bowlers and Pandya will always be risky.
