About Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya is widely considered one of the best white-ball all-rounders in the world. Born in 1993 in Choryasi, Surat, he moved to Vadodara as a child when his father gave up his business so that Hardik and his brother Krunal could train at Kiran More’s cricket academy. The family lived modestly in a rented flat while the brothers chased their dream, and both went on to play for India.
Career highlights
Hardik is a hard-hitting middle-order batter and a right-arm fast-medium bowler, and he became the first fast-bowling all-rounder to reach 1,000 runs and 100 wickets in T20 internationals. He has captained India in white-ball cricket and was vice-captain of the team that won the 2024 T20 World Cup, bowling the tense final over of the final to seal victory.
In the IPL he won multiple titles with Mumbai Indians early in his career, led Gujarat Titans to the title in their debut season in 2022, and now captains Mumbai Indians. He occasionally plays domestic cricket for Baroda.
