England vs India 2018: 5 things that went wrong for India in the ODI series

2018 Cricket International One Day Series England v India Jul 17th
England won their seventh bilateral ODI series in a row

#3 No show from Hardik Pandya

England v India - 2nd ODI: Royal London One-Day Series
Hardik Pandya had a high score of 21 in the ODI series

A lot has been spoken about the potential of Hardik Pandya but time is running out for him in the 50-overs format to prove his mettle. He has had a forgetful time with the bat and hasn't provided the timely breakthroughs that India expects of him, having been around for more than a couple of years in international cricket.

India's love for him is well documented but against England, he never got going with the bat and was ordinary with the ball. He is the X-factor that India has invested in a lot and more than anyone, Hardik himself will know that he will have to start delivering consistently to repay the faith shown in him.
