It seems like Hardik Pandya could soon be back into the Team India Test side. For the last few days, the all-rounder had been posting pictures with red ball, a format that he has somehow managed to avoid since 2018. Now, as it turns out, as per a report in SportsTak, Hardik will play for Baroda in domestic circuit, that would pave his way to India eventually.
A source from Baroda Cricket Association confirmed of the development as well. It is important to note that after the Bangladesh series, India play Tests against New Zealand and their tour Australia for the Border-Gavaskar series. Meanwhile, he would be in action during the Bangladesh T20Is as well, that begin on October 6 in Gwalior.
Hardik Pandya to Play Ranji Trophy, Could be in Test Team
So far, Hardik Pandya has played 11 Tests for India and bagged 17 wickets. Apart from that he also has 532 runs to his name including a ton. As far as first-class cricket is concerned, he has 29 matches to his name, in which he has 48 wickets, and 1351 runs.
He could be a value addition in the Test team, especially in Australia, where the pitches are fast & bouncy, and offer assistance to pacers.
