India allrounder Hardik Pandya faced the ire on social space following his 35-ball 40 in the 3rd T20I. Now that India lost the game against England, Hardik is facing the heat for his slow-paced knock. Speaking on the post-match show on Star Sports, former India cricketer Parthiv Patel reckoned that a batter couldn’t take 20-25 deliveries to get set in a T20I. He also pointed out that while Hardik finished with 40 runs off 35 balls, he took a lot of dot balls at the start of his innings.
“Can’t take 20-25 balls to get set. I understand taking your time but you have to keep rotating the strike. Hardik may have ended up with 40 off 35, but there were a lot of dot balls at the start of his innings,” Patel said.
