Hardik Pandya was the star of the Mumbai Indians in the IPL. But this time Hardik Pandya will not be on the field for Mumbai. He will be the captain of the Gujarat Titans, a newcomer to the IPL. The Gujarat Titans have acquired Hardik Pandya for Rs 15 crore.
This is Hardik Pandya’s first captain in the IPL. Prior to the mega auction, the team had already announced the player as its captain.
Though he was the mainstay of the Mumbai Indians, he does not have the habit of leading the team. But for Hardick, the director of the team is confident that he can make the team better.
With the words of Vikram Solanki ..
“Hardik Pandya has all the elements to succeed as a captain. Hardik was a member of the leadership team of the Indian team. Pandya has learned a lot from Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni. Hardik will use all of that in his captaincy growth. Hardik will have the strong support of the support staff. Hardik is struggling to recover from injury. He is convinced that he has more speed in batting, bowling and fielding. ”
Hardik Pandya, who has been in poor form recently, has been ruled out of the T20 World Cup due to a hamstring injury. Hardick did not shine in the matches he played as a batter. Following this, Mumbai Indians dropped Hardik before the IPL megastar auction.
