However, there was good news for the Indian fans as Hardik Pandya was brilliant with the ball. The all-rounder has recently started rolling his arms again ever since he suffered an injury. It was an uncommon sight to see Hardik bowling with the new ball, however, he fulfilled the responsibility of an all-rounder and delivered a stunning performance gave away 16 runs from 4 overs, and picked two crucial wickets for his team.
While social media is abuzz with praises for the star all-rounder, on the other hand, former Indian cricketer and commentator Sanjay Manjrekar found himself at the receiving end of criticism and trolling.
Well, after the match, Manjrekar took to his Twitter and took a dig at Hardik Pandya. In his tweet, he praised Pandya for his bowling however, also mentioned how he failed with the bat. He also reminded everyone of the Australia tour when Pandya emerged out as the pure batsman. He wrote:
“Saw Hardik Pandya the pure batsman in Australia. Hasn’t quite fired with the bat yet but now seeing Hardik the pure T20 bowler excel this series. Great news for Indian cricket! #INDvsENG_2021″
Here, check out the Tweet:
