Hardik Pandya, who is going through a rich vain of form, played another blinder in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024-25 and made sure that he helped his team win the game. The all-rounder oozed his class with the bat and, yet again, was at his brutal best, slamming bowlers all over the game.
Parvez Sultan was on the receiving end of the carnage by the Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya
In the game against Tripura, left-arm spinner Parvez Sultan was on the receiving end of the carnage by the Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya. The right-hander, in the 10th over of the second innings, smashed the bowlers for 4 sixes and one boundary to take his team close to victory.
Hardik Pandya started the over with the massive six over covers, and after a dot ball, he hit the big six in the long off region on the third ball. The all-rounder then completed three sixes as he dispatched the full toss, which was the fourth ball, by Parvez Sultan towards the leg side to put the bowler under massive pressure.
Pandya attempted to hit the 5th ball for a six as well, but he got the outside edge, and to the unfortunate of the bowler, the ball raced away for four. The all-rounder, however, made sure that he ended the over on high as he hit another maximum in the long off region to complete 28 runs in the over.
