Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya made his return to the Indian T20I setup following his recovery from a quadriceps injury during the final Super-4 game in the Asia Cup. Pandya did not turn up for the final optional practice session on Monday in Cuttack.
Alongside Shubman Gill, the vice captain of the Indian team, Pandya, the veteran all-rounder, is also set to make a return to the shortest format of the game. The Indian all-rounder has returned from his injury since the Asia Cup final.
After Pandya missed the Australian tour and the ODI leg of the South Africa tour as well, he is back with some cameos in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, playing for Baroda. The all-rounder has shown his calibre with both bat and ball.
