Hardik Pandya likely to leave soon for IPL

However, Hardik Pandya might not get much time to spend with his child. The Indian Premier League (IPL) is set to be played from September 19, and more details are expected to be finalised over the next couple of days. If everything goes as per plan, the franchises are likely to leave for the UAE well in advance. Reportedly, all the teams are looking to hold a camp four weeks before the IPL’s commencement.

The tournament is also a comeback for Hardik Pandya, having last played in a T20I against September. He was then ruled out of the action due to back injury and underwent surgery later. The all-rounder was supposed to return to the field for the home ODIs against South Africa in March. But it got postponed due to the pandemic wreaking havoc across the world.
