WI vs IND 2022: Whenever he scores runs or takes wickets, India win 90% of their games – Reetinder Singh Sodhi on Hardik Pandya

Former Indian all-rounder Reetinder Singh Sodhi has lauded the performance of Hardik Pandya. Sodhi said that Pandya is a ruthless cricketer and whenever he scores runs or takes wickets, India win 90% of their games.

The Indian all-rounder is definitely a match-winner and he impacts the game with his performances. Pandya once again played a key role in India’s win in the third T20I as he scalped one wicket and conceded only 19 runs in his quota of four overs.

The right-arm pacer accounted for Brandon King to give the first breakthrough to his team. Pandya conceded his runs at an economy rate of 4.80 and he was the pick of the Indian bowlers.

Sodhi said on India News Sports: “Pandya is a player who will walk out on the field and use his brains and play his own game. He is a ruthless cricketer, whenever he scores runs or takes wickets, India will win 90% of their games. He knows how to get out of difficult situations. One of the main reasons why India are a serious contender for the WC, is because Pandya has regained his form.”

On the other hand, former Indian wicket-keeer batter Saba Karim reckons Rishabh Pant wants to bat at number four in T20Is as he also plays at the same position for Delhi Capitals. Pant added the finishing touches as he scored 33 runs off just 26 balls in the third T20I against the West Indies.

The former Indian selector said, “Even with Delhi Capitals, Pant wants to play at No.4. He actually wants to open the innings, but he was talked out of it.”

“He played a good innings, played intelligently, and this is what we expect from him going forward.”

Pant hasn’t been consistent in the T20I format and he will need to be come up with the goods in the upcoming matches. On the other hand, Hardik Pandya has been in prolific form and he is ticking the right boxes in the recent past.

The fourth T20I between India and West Indies will be played in Florida on Saturday.
