Fans on Twitter reacted in joy after Hardik Pandya smashed a fiery half-century in the semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2022 against England. They hailed him as the future Indian captain and lauded him for playing a staggering knock under pressure.
Hardik Pandya’s 63-run knock powers India to 168 against England in the semi-final
In what was a sensational knock under pressure, Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya played one of his best T20I innings. The right-hander smashed English bowlers all over the park and made sure that India end the first innings on high.
Hardik came to bat when India was tumbling at 75/3. He started a bit slowly with the bat but once he got in, he took the English bowlers to the cleaners and give the Indian side much-needed momentum.
Hardik first stitched a crucial fifty-plus partnership with Virat Kohli (50) but once his partner was out, he unleashed his beast mode and smashed sixes for fun. His staggering innings powered India to a total of 168, which at one moment seemed impossible.
Hardik played a sensational knock of 63 runs in 33 balls and batted with a strike rate of 190.91. The all-rounder smashed 4 fours and 5 sixes during his innings and ensured that India have momentum going into the second innings.
