India’s star all-rounder Hardik Pandya has praised the bowling attack led by Jasprit Bumrah, highlighting the experience and commitment within the group. He believes that the bowlers will deliver their best performance in the T20 World Cup. India's team demonstrated a strong start by defeating Ireland by 8 wickets in their opening match of the World Cup.
Hardik's Comments
Hardik mentioned in a BCCI TV interview, “We were informed today that our team collectively has 892 T20 matches worth of experience, which is substantial. Our core bowling group holds significant experience and honesty in their approach. We received considerable assistance from the wicket during our match against Ireland.”
Positive Start Pleases Hardik
Hardik expressed his satisfaction with the team's positive start to the tournament. He said, “We are very happy with the way we have started. Gaining momentum is extremely important because once the tournament begins, it carries forward. When you work hard and achieve success because of it, it feels very rewarding. Additionally, playing here is quite exciting.”
Hardik on Effort and Dedication
Post-match, batting coach Vikram Rathour revealed that Hardik was prepared to bowl four overs. Despite his persistent injury troubles, the 30-year-old all-rounder emphasized focusing on his work. Hardik stated, “Things align favorably for those who work hard. It is essential to trust yourself and recognize your capabilities because the job of 30-year-old Hardik is far easier compared to 60-year-old Hardik.”
Focus on the Pakistan Match
Hardik’s attention is now on the crucial match against Pakistan scheduled for Sunday. He remarked, “Matches between India and Pakistan are incredibly thrilling, filled with excitement and emotions. I hope we play with discipline and that the day turns out well for us.”
