IPL 2021: Trying to do what's best for Hardik Pandya: Coach Jayawardene opens up on MI star's bowling plans
India Today
IPL 2021: Hardik Pandya has not bowled a single over in the ongoing season of Indian Premier League. The all-rounder's inability to contribute with the ball has raised concerns for Team India ahead of the T20 World Cup.
Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene said the 5-time champions are wary of pushing Hardik Pandya to bowl, considering his niggles in the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League. Hardik has not bowled a single over in IPL 2021 even after the tournament resumed in the UAE last month.
All eyes are on Hardik Pandya as the Mumbai Indians all-rounder has been picked as a fast-bowling all-rounder in India's T20 World Cup squad. India's chief selector Chetan Sharma had insisted after the selection meeting that Pandya will bowl his full quota of four overs.
