On the cusp of starting a new chapter in his career, Hardik Pandya, the captain of the newly-inducted Ahmedabad franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL), continued to keep his cards close to his chest about resuming to bowl at full tilt.
“It’s a surprise for everyone,” Hardik said on Tuesday, when asked about the status on his bowling workload, during his first official interaction as the Ahmedabad franchise captain. Despite having had to compromise his bowling ever since suffering a chronic back injury during the 2018 Asia Cup, Hardik insisted that he sees himself as an allrounder and not just a batter.
