1. Hardik Pandya (India, 9/10)
Hardik Pandya is one of the senior players of the Indian team who is expected to strengthen the team with exceptional all-round talent. As a bowler, he supports India’s pace attack while in the batting department, he serves as a middle-order batter who dominates bowlers with his fierce playing style.
Pandya’s strike rate over 100.00 in the ODI format clearly speaks about his batting calibre. The star all-rounder has batted in the lower-middle order mostly and his batting numbers are superb in the number six and seven positions. At number six, he has scored 770 runs in 22 matches at a strike rate of 102.52.
After MS Dhoni’s retirement, India were looking to get a player who could finish games as the legendary wicketkeeper batter used to. Witnessing Hardik’s performance so far, it can be said that the 29-year-old has strived to fill Dhoni’s shoes. In this Asia Cup, the Indian team will back Pandya to serve the side efficiently as a finisher.
