Hardik Pandya's body is so weak, he cannot even bowl four overs properly at the moment: Salman Butt

Hardik Pandya’s career has been continuously marred by injuries. And, former Pakistan opening batter Salman Butt feels that Pandya’s body has become so weak, that he cannot even survive playing a single format of the game.

Butt added that Pandya needs to indulge in weight training and also needs to follow a proper diet. Butt also added that the Indian all-rounder cannot even bowl 4 overs properly.

“Hardik Pandya’s body is so weak that he can’t even survive in a single format. He needs to put on some muscle by weight training and proper diet. Ravi Shastri recently said Pandya should go back and work hard so that he is able to bowl 4 overs. That means he can’t even bowl 4 overs properly at the moment,” said Salman Butt while speaking on his YouTube channel.
