To all who was telling in comment below my last tweet VDO or quoting it by saying he can only hit Spinners @hardikpandya7 for you against Pacer.
What a brutal hitting out of the park effortlessly.

Hardik Pandya’s comeback on the cards

The 26-year old underwent successful surgery in October last year for an acute lower-back injury.  After a long absence from the action, Pandya presented a case for national reckoning with an excellent display with both bat and bowl in the ongoing tournament.

Earlier this week, Hardik Pandya scored a 37-ball hundred in the ongoing tournament and also snared 5 for 26 in his fours overs in the same match.

Hardik Pandya is likley to be named in Team India’s squad for the forthcoming ODI series against South Africa.
