Former India opener Aakash Chopra is understood for his sharp evaluation with respect to the newest happenings in the cricketing world. He usually comes up with team’s and gamers’ evaluation, whether or not in the worldwide enviornment or home circuit.
Chopra has now picked the most valuable white-ball cricketer in the Indian team. The cricketer-turned-commentator heaped praises on star all-rounder Hardik Pandya, terming him India’s ‘most valuable player in white-ball cricket.’
Chopra’s huge assertion got here after Hardik was lately adjudged the ‘Player of the Series’ in the ODI collection in opposition to England, which India received 2-1. Notably, Hardik starred with each and ball and performed an enormous function in India’s win at the decider in Manchester.
Hardik picked up a four-wicket haul for twenty-four runs after which performed a match-winning 71-run knock with the bat, forming a game-changing 133-run fifth-wicket stand with Rishabh Pant (125*) as the ‘Men in Blue’ chased down the 260-run goal.
Chopra asserted that it’s doable to get spin-bowling all-rounders however discovering a alternative for Hardik is extraordinarily tough.
“Hardik Pandya – he has been absolutely stellar. One thing is getting proved that he is India’s most valuable player in white-ball cricket. I don’t think there is going to be anyone who is going to come close to him. If Hardik Pandya is fit, his replacement is not available. You will get many spin-bowling all-rounders in India, you get them easily, in different formats, but you don’t get a fast-bowling all-rounder at all, it is not possible at all,” Chopra stated on his YouTube channel,
Chopra felt that Hardik has turn into fairly distinctive ever since he has regained full health. The Agra-born termed Hardik as the primary performer in the England collection and stated he has taken the duty of ending matches with the bat.
“Now that he has come back to full spring as a bowler, he is bowling well, and a different level of maturity is being seen in his batting. You will also have to probably thank the IPL for that because he got the responsibility, got the chance to play in a different fashion. Now it is not that you just come in the end and play as a finisher. The team has asked more, he has delivered more. So this has been an extremely beautiful thing. In my opinion, the No. 1 performer for this entire white-ball series, Hardik without a doubt,” Chopra added.
