Team India is on a roll in the T20 World Cup, securing a spot in the Super 8 round with a hat-trick of victories. All-rounder Hardik Pandya is back in form, playing a crucial role in the bowling department. Fans are eagerly waiting to see his explosive batting in the upcoming matches. Hardik's journey to this tournament has been challenging, facing injuries and personal issues, but he seems to have settled well into the tournament.
Hardik Pandya's Journey:
Before the T20 World Cup, Hardik faced several hurdles. An injury forced him to withdraw from the ODI World Cup. Later, he was appointed as the captain of Mumbai Indians, leading to criticism from fans. Despite the team's disappointing performance in the IPL, Hardik's resilience shone through.
Amidst his professional challenges, Hardik's personal life was also turbulent. Rumors of conflicts and potential divorce with Natasha Stankovic stirred the media. However, a recent Instagram post by Natasha and Hardik's public statement about his personal life have quelled these speculations.
India vs Pakistan Thriller:
In a nail-biting match, India faced Pakistan in the T20 World Cup. India was bowled out for 119 runs, but Pakistan could only manage 113 runs, resulting in a thrilling 6-run victory for India. Australian cricket legend and Delhi Capitals coach Ricky Ponting praised the Indian players, particularly Axar Patel, Rishabh Pant, and Kuldeep Yadav, who play for Delhi Capitals.
During a one-on-one chat with Hardik Pandya, Ponting asked about his well-being:
Hardik Pandya: "Ricky..! How's everything going? How's your family?"
Ricky Ponting: "They're all cool. How about you?"
Hardik Pandya: "All good. All sweet."
This conversation suggests that things are smooth between Hardik and Natasha. The video of this chat was shared by ICC on YouTube titled "A Day in the Life of Ricky Ponting."
