Hardik Pandya has given glimpses of the potential that the Indian think-tank sees in him and has decided to back him to develop into a top-class all-rounder. In the first ODI match against New Zealand in Dharmasala, he came good with the ball on a pitch which had some help for him. In Delhi, during the second game, he nearly helped India pull off an unexpected win but fell after an injudicious shot when victory was in sight.
