Hardik Pandya: IND vs WI – After completing the third T20I, Hardik Pandya-led India has landed in Miami, USA to play the two T20Is on Saturday and Sunday. In a must-win game in the third T20I, team India finally put on a commendable display with bat and ball and won the match by seven wickets. With this win, the Pandya-led side are alive in the five-match T20 series.
India will have one day off after landing on Thursday and will have an optional training session on Friday. The Men in Blue need to win two more games to win the series. The matches will take place in Florida. During the Major League Cricket (MLC), crowds turned out in huge numbers to witness.

After two consecutive failures, the senior players in the team Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik, Chahal, and Kuldeep, performed well in the third match to help India cross the finish line. There was belligerence in Surya’s batting, while Chahal and Kuldeep managed to spin a web on a helpful surface in Guyana. Hardik also marshaled his resources well and looked assured at the crease.
Now, it is about continuing with the same momentum in the next two T20Is. The pitches in the USA will also be on the slower side as was evidenced during MLC. So, India won’t be making too many changes from the third T20. Sanju Samson is expected to continue the wicketkeeping role, as India will give Yashasvi Jaiswal more chances as an opening batter. After three failures in T20Is, the pressure is mounting on Gill to score runs.
The Windies tour so far has been fruitful for the youngster as he has scored only one fifty. Pacers Arshdeep Singh and Mukesh Kumar are to be in the playing XI owing to their good performances in three T20Is.
