    Questions Arise Regarding Pandya's Performance, Consistency And Commitment To Indian Cricket, Says Irfan Pathan

    Post T20 World Cup: Former India left-arm fast-bowler Irfan Pathan believes pace-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah could have made for a suitable candidate as India’s vice-captain for the Men’s T20 World Cup, instead of Hardik Pandya, who was named as Rohit Sharma’s deputy for the mega event.

    Pathan, the Player of the Match in 2007 T20 World Cup final, also took aim at Pandya’s performances, consistency and commitment to playing for the Indian team. “Previously, Hardik Pandya held the captaincy, but Rohit Sharma took over for T20 matches. Post T20 World Cup, there was a new plan; they aimed for a younger team with Pandya and Surya as potential captains.”

    “Yet, questions arise regarding Pandya's performance consistency and commitment to Indian cricket. Regular participation in domestic cricket is essential for serving Indian cricket throughout the year. Injuries are inevitable, but proper planning involving consistent match play, including domestic cricket, is vital for a player's return. But then there's this one player who returns from injury without fulfilling the same requirements. That shouldn't happen because it sends the wrong message to the rest of the team,” he said in an episode of the ‘Star Sports Press Room’ show.
