#6 Hit: Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya displayed his all-around skills to perfection as he took 4 wickets and played a match-winning cameo scoring 33 off just 14 balls.
Firstly with the ball, Pandya bought India back in the game chipping in with 4 wickets which dented England’s hope of giving India an out of reach total. Later in the second innings, Hardik showed why he is among the best power hitters in the game as he smacked 4 fours and 2 sixes, scoring at a strike rate of 235.71.
