Ace all-rounder Hardik Pandya posted a heartwarming video for all Indian fans ahead of their first T20 World Cup fixture. In their opening game of the World T20, India will seek revenge from their arch-rivals Pakistan on October 23, 2022, at Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Pandya has made a heroic return to cricket after a long injury haul. He led the Gujarat Titans (GT) to the prestigious trophy in their debut season. His stock has since gone up, with the all-rounder continuing his fine performances in national colours.
Hardik Pandya will be pumped up to make a mark in the upcoming showpiece T20 event. He posted a video showing his motivation and arguing to win the WorldCup as he said we are ready to take the world Cup back.
In the short clip shared on social media, Pandya can be heard saying:
“This team, this family, we are ready to give it all. Blood, sweat, and tears. All that matters is the World Cup ahead of us. We are counting on you every step ahead.”

“Helping myself to go back to the basics” – Hardik Pandya on his comeback from injury
Hardik Pandya has had injury troubles in the last couple of years before making a grand return this year. In an interview after coming back to Team India and becoming a crucial part of team India, he said:
“It has to do a lot with helping myself to go back to the basics and approaching everything on a positive note. Because of that I have got peace in my life looking at the brighter side always.
“I know I will have good days and bad days but the positivity comes from the hard work that I put in, which then gives me the self-belief and confidence to give it everything. And with the support of my family to always have my back, I feel a sense of complete focus and positivity around me.”
