Hardik Pandya

The ace all-rounder Hardik Pandya is known to be Dhoni’s successor for the finisher’s role in the Indian limited-overs side. But off late he’s been involved in a lot of off the field controversies. To add to that Hardik has been out of action since last year owing to an injury.

As we approach this year’s IPL, we would expect Hardik to make news by finishing matches for Mumbai Indians. He cannot get a bigger platform than the IPL to showcase why he’s the rightful successor of MS Dhoni going into the future.

Pandya will be accompanied by West Indies veteran Kieron Pollard out in the middle for most finishes this year. Since they complement each other so well, Hardik should learn the art of finishing matches from Pollard himself.

We hope to see Hardik hit big in this IPL, hopefully putting down some match-winning performances for Mumbai Indians.
