#2 Miss: Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya has been India's find of the season. He looked extremely potent in the Indian Premier League, followed it up with some mind-boggling knocks in the Champions Trophy, and then made a sensational debut against Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka this August.
However, the year has quietened down suddenly for the all-rounder after that. He could not make his presence felt in the Australia series last month and hasn't done anything special against New Zealand till now.
On a flat deck like the Rajkot pitch, Pandya was expected to bring some firepower into the Indian batting unit by playing a swashbuckling knock. However, he could score just one run before he was sent back to the pavilion by a wrong'un from Ish Sodhi.
He hardly contributed with the ball too and gave away 14 runs in the only over that he bowled in the first innings.
