Last month, he made his comeback to the national side after his impressive show in the Indian T20 League 2022. For Gujarat, he did well with the bat and ball and made played his first international game since the 20-20 World Cup last year. The all-rounder played in the South Africa series. In the next series against Ireland, the Gujarat player led the national team.
After the recent ODI series against England, the 28-year-old was adjudged as the 'Player Of The Series' Meanwhile, the fans appreciated the five-time Indian T20 League winner but have reminded him that the job is not done. They feel that this is just a start. On the other hand, there are a set of fans who have appreciated the right-hander for his comeback.
The fans also reminded the right-arm bowler that he has a 20-20 World Cup and ODI World Cup to win for his country. Later this year, the 20-20 World Cup will be played in Australia and the fans will be expecting to stay fit this time around. Fans might remember him going into the last year's event carrying injuries. Also, his shoulder got worse after getting hit by Shaheen Afridi's bouncer in the game against Pakistan, which India lost.
This is how Twitter reacted
This is of course a big comeback. But this should be just a trailer. Full movie is in making.

A spectacular journey for Hardik Pandya. A back surgery, struggling to bowl and out of form with the bat. To top with, he got dropped from the Indian side and wasn't retained by MI.
