Delhi: Looking at the recent performance of Team India, it seems as if the need of star all-rounder Hardik Pandya is being felt in Test cricket at this time, especially when the team has lost the Test series against New Zealand 3-0 at home and now Border. -The challenge of Gavaskar Trophy is ahead. However, Hardik is currently a part of the four-match T20 International series against South Africa starting from November 8.
SA vs IND: Indian team with Suryakumar will face the ‘injured lions’ of South Africa in the T20I series.
In this context, when former cricketer Robin Uthappa was asked whether Hardik Pandya should be in the Test team or the T20 team, Uthappa said that it completely depends on Hardik. He said, “It depends on Hardik what he thinks, because only he has complete information about his body and fitness. They have to decide whether they are completely fit or could get injured. As an all-rounder, his fitness is important.”
Uthappa also talked about Hardik’s physical structure, “His body is like Dale Steyn. Stan also got injured easily. He is very strong, but also thin. Hardik will have to keep himself fully prepared to bear the pressure of his bowling, batting and fielding.
Uthappa further said, “We know that Hardik has been performing well in white ball cricket for the last few years, but the challenge of Test cricket is different. He will get a chance to understand himself how much fitness he needs in Test cricket.”
He also said, “If Hardik plays Test cricket, he will know how much he can push himself. I definitely see a role for him in Test cricket, but it is for him to take this decision. He knows how much he can push his body and if he can do it, he will definitely do it.”
