Former New Zealand all-rounder Scott Styris reckons that Hardik Pandya's ability is in the same zone as Ben Stokes but the Kiwi is not yet satisfied with the Indian all-rounder's returns. (More Cricket News)
"This champion all-rounder (Pandya) has got as many skills as anyone. He's probably in a similar ability-zone as someone like Ben Stokes. He's got much more talent than that (his recent performances),바카라 Styris told PTI Videos in an interview.
However, the Kiwi thinks Hardik needs to bring in more consistency to his performances.
바카라He is a phenomenally skilled cricketer. But he hasn't quite shown it yet as consistently enough for my liking. So, just let him get out there and just say, you've got to lead us now by your performance,바카라 he said.
바카라I think the skills that Indian fans need to see from him now is being available all the time on the field and then delivering those performances with both bat and ball.바카라
Hardik Pandya missing out on India's T20I captaincy has been a surprise for many as he was the deputy to Rohit Sharma in the T20 World Cup-winning campaign. His fitness record has reportedly played a role in Suryakumar Yadav moving ahead in the captaincy race.
Styris also wanted Hardik to remain in the peak fitness zone more often than not.
바카라I want to see him get his body right and be that dominant all-rounder that we know. Bowling is really hard work and he is someone who's got all the skills and talent.
바카라I want to see him be that genuine all-rounder and as someone whom you can rely on with both bat and ball, not just the odd over here with the ball and come in with a cameo,바카라 said Styris.
