NEW DELHI: With only six ODIs to go before the ICC Champions Trophy next February, there are persisting doubts about Hardik Pandya's bowling fitness in the 50-over format.
While Hardik had asked for a break from the three ODIs in Sri Lanka next month citing personal reasons, TOI has learnt that his fitness will be closely monitored over the next few months in domestic cricket. The next three ODIs that India play are against England in Jan preceding the Champions Trophy.
