Hardik pandya

A wiry young lad from a small town in Gujarat, Hardik Pandya, with his tattoos and peroxide highlights, encapsulates the charisma and swagger of the modern-day Indian cricketer.

As several youngsters do in the modern era, Pandya announced himself to the world during the IPL, portraying his swashbuckling ability to strike the ball, outstanding fielding, and some street-smart bowling that transcends the cliché 'just rolls his arm over'. He made the world sit up when he soaked in the pressure and came good in crunch situations, playing a pivotal role in the Mumbai franchise's second title triumph, and winning two Man of the Match awards on his way. The Indian public and critics, who never fail to make comparisons, immediately had the inevitable question at the tip of their tongue: Had India found their first fast-bowling all-rounder since Kapil Dev? Despite being predominantly noted for his explosive batting, Pandya is no slouch with the ball. In fact, it was his all-round skills which caught the attention of the T20 ...

Although Rahul didn't quite have a memorable IPL season, that isn't expected to have an impact on his selection in the national team. The right-handed batsman has shown intent in his short career and looks set to be backed. India's likely squad for West Indies T20I series: Hardik Pandya (Captain), Suryakumar Yadav (Vice-captain), Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ishan Kishan, Rahul Tripathi, Jitesh Sharma, Rinku Singh, Washington Sundar, Shivam Mavi, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Tushar Deshpande, Arshdeep Singh, Mohit Sharma
