On September 30, Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya delighted onlookers at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) by generously signing autographs and taking photographs. This was how the all-rounder appreciated the cricketing fraternity for their encouragement and zeal.
Cricketing actions shift forward, and Hardik Pandya will soon be back on the pitch in the upcoming three-match Twenty20 International series, where he will be attached against Bangladesh. The two teams therefore commence their series on October 6 in Gwalior, the venue to host the first match.
India would be depending on Pandya to have a big effect because of his powerful bowling and explosive batting. A sensational exhibition of cricketing talent is what fans are hoping for when he returns to action.
Hardik Pandya played a significant part in India winning their second T20 World Cup:

The last appearance of India’s star all-rounder Hardik Pandya representing the national team was during the T20I series versus Sri Lanka. The last two matches he played before being rested for the third game of the series, which saw India clean-sweep the opponents 3-0 and captained the team to victories. Though, he had other reasons for skipping the subsequent ODI series.
He also resumed his training after his break from active sports to make a rather memorable impression as he started the training session. It was all about thanking them for being fans, as he gladly stepped aside to take pictures and sign autographs for the thrilled fans.
Pandya was again picturized during and after the World Cup T20 earlier this year as a weapon towards India’s triumph. After a wait of 11 years for an ICC title, his gutsy bowling at the final match against South Africa earned a winning game by 7 runs for India.
