Hardik Pandya lately has been in and out of Team India due to fitness issues. After he underwent back surgery in 2019, the flamboyant all-rounder has struggled to bowl his full quota of overs regularly.
Pandya was last seen in action during the ICC T20 World Cup 2021. Much like Team India’s campaign, the all-rounder too struggled to get going. His selection in the marquee tournament even invited a lot of criticism as many were of the opinion that an unfit cricketer shouldn't find a place in the team.
