Hardik Pandya is one of the best all-rounders in the world at the moment. The 24-year-old made his One Day International debut for India on October 2016 and has played 38 games so far.

Pandya has scored 628 runs at an average of almost 30 and a strike rate of 115.86 and has also picked up 39 wickets at an economy rate of 5.45. Hardik Pandya gives a nice balance to this Indian ODI side and his presence allows Virat Kohli to play five genuine bowlers.

He is a versatile batsman who can bat anywhere in the middle-order and gives the much-required firepower to the experienced Indian batting lineup and can bowl equally well. He possesses a good pace and bowls a consistent line and length. The form of Pandya is vital to India’s success in the 2019 World Cup.
