Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly appealed to India all-rounder Hardik Pandya to play Test cricket again in the near future. Ganguly opined that a player like Pandya will fit in conditions like England.
Though Pandya used to be an all-format player for India in the past, due to injuries in the past, he has not sported the white jersey for India for a long time. It’s yet to be seen whether he decides to play red-ball cricket in the future or not. At present, he plays only ODIs and T20Is and on several occasions, captained the T20I side also.
“I hope Hardik Pandya is listening. I want to see him play est cricket, especially in these conditions,” Ganguly said on India Today.
Pandya has featured in 11 Test matches in his career, scoring 532 runs with one century and five fifties. In bowling, he has scalped 17 wickets, including a five-wicket haul against England.

Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) signed Hardik Pandya as the brand ambassador for its SUV Exter. The reason behind signing the flamboyant all-rounder is that he has emerged as one of India’s brightest stars. His performance and great family values are other factors behind it, plus he is expected to amplify the brand campaign to connect with millennials and Gen Z audiences.
Commenting on the same, Pandya said: “I am very passionate about cars and this SUV fits into my style perfectly. It is spacious and stunning inside, dynamic on the outside, and loaded with all you need to venture outside.”
Meanwhile, Pandya will be seen playing for India again after the recently-concluded Indian Premier League (IPL) where he led Gujarat Titans to the final. India will play Tests, ODIs, and T20Is against West Indies starting July 12.
