New York, Jun 5: Hardik Pandya wore a blue jersey on Wednesday but this time the crowd cheered him instead of jeering the all-rounder. (More Cricket News)
The blue jersey Pandya donned on Wednesday was that of India바카라s, and not the deep blue of Mumbai Indians in which he stood in the face of an intense storm during the IPL 2024.
Here, Pandya played a key role with his fast-medium stuff that got him three wickets and 바카라enjoyed hitting the stumps.바카라
바카라Always special to play for the country, WC is something I've been able to contribute,바카라 Hardik told broadcasters during the innings break during India바카라s T20 World Cup match against Ireland.
Having endured the most horrifying two and half months of his cricket career as MI skipper, Pandya once again looked at home in India blues.
He bowled those four invaluable overs which his skipper Rohit Sharma will need more in the coming days to manoeuvre the moving pieces in his team combination.
On a helpful track, he bowled 72 percent deliveries (as per pitch map) either on length or just short of good length.
Out of 72 percent, 44 percent was pitched on good length, which allowed the ball to swing and also get movement off the surface.
바카라I really liked the first wicket. Generally, don't hit the stumps often, I have a tendency to bowl back of a length. But on this wicket, I needed to be a lot fuller to be in the game. Yes, if you bowl short, the ball may fly,바카라 Pandya said.

바카라It's always fantastic to see crowd supporting us, we Indians are everywhere, we rule the world. Good to have so much support, many thanks to them,바카라 he said.
