    "editor1": "<p><strong>WI vs IND 3rd T20I: <\/strong>Hardik Pandya has been impeccable as an all-rounder ever since his return in IPL 2022. Hardik as a bowler has gained impressive bowling skills and has been providing breakthroughs for team India with the ball in his hand. In the 3rd T20I, after West Indies were off to a flying start, Kung fu Pandya struck as he bowled Windies opener, Brandon King.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>After being put in to bat first, West Indies got off to a flying start as the openers added 57 runs for the first wicket in 7.1 overs, team India were in desperate need of a wicket. In this moment of need, Rohit turned towards Hardik Pandya, who had previously bowled 1 over and conceded 8 runs without a wicket.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>On the first delivery, Kyle Mayers took a single and brought Brandon King on strike. Pandya bowled a good length which held its line around off. It was a slower delivery as Pandya rolled his fingers across the seam. King was unable to pick it and was way too early into the swipe.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The batter managed a big inside edge, which sent his leg-stump cartwheeling towards the wicketkeeper. Brandon King was dismissed after scoring 20 runs in 20 balls with 3 fours as West Indies lost their first wicket. This was also the 50th T20I wicket for Hardik Pandya.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">A much-needed breakthrough from <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hardikpandya7?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@hardikpandya7<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BrandonKing?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BrandonKing<\/a> dismissed!<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nWatch all the action from the India tour of West Indies LIVE, only on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FanCode?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FanCode<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/RCdQk12YsM\">https:\/\/t.co\/RCdQk12YsM<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BCCI?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@BCCI<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/windiescricket?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@windiescricket<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WIvIND?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WIvIND<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/INDvsWIonFanCode?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#INDvsWIonFanCode<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/INDvsWI?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#INDvsWI<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/gdIl2Nxh5C\">pic.twitter.com\/gdIl2Nxh5C<\/a><\/p>\r\n&mdash; FanCode (@FanCode) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FanCode\/status\/1554507676008165376?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 2, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote>\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/live-cricket-score\">Scorecard<\/a><\/p><p>Earlier, India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss &amp; opted to bowl first against West Indies in the 3rd T20I.
