“Hardik Pandya clearly has a vision” – Twitter reacts after Hardik Pandya said he wants to put this team in difficult situations in bilaterals to help them in big games

The first T20I between India and Sri Lanka certainly lived up to the expectations of the fans at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The game did stretch to the climax which kept the fans on the edge of their seats.

The Men in Blue led by Hardik Pandya posted 162 for the loss of five wickets in their allotted quota of 20 overs. Deepak Hooda was the pick of the batters in the Indian cricket team as he chipped in with 41 off 23 balls where he struck 1 four and 4 sixes.

Shubman Gill and Shivam Mavi made their T20I debut against Sri Lanka. While Gill failed miserably at the office by scoring just seven runs, Shivam Mavi had a fantastic debut as he accounted for four dismissals.

Shivam Mavi got rid of Pathum Nissanka, Dhananjaya de Silva, Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana. On the other side of the coin, Umran Malik and Harshal Patel accounted for two dismissals apiece.

Hardik Pandya delivers a promising statement after a thriller win over Sri Lanka

Meanwhile, Team India restricted the visitors to 160/8 in 20 overs and pulled off the ropes from the jaws of the defeat. The Men in Blue won the game by two runs and took the first lead in the three-match T20I series.

Hardik Pandya and Co will be looking forward to securing another win in the next game in order to win the series. After India scripted a thriller win over Sri Lanka, skipper Hardik Pandya delivered a promising statement.

After the game, he said he literally wants to put this team in difficult situations in bilateral series such that it would surely help them in big games. It is important for the Indians to pick up the lessons, especially in clutch moments of the game. If they figure out some strategy, then they would be on top of their game when locking horns with big oppositions.

Rohit said the same thing. Gave Avesh difficult overs, man got bashed out of the team.

Rohit also talked about aggressive cricket in T20I and it stopped working just during the WC 🤣

Give me results and then I'll believe now 😭 https://t.co/rxdKxbkSb6
