Fans on Twitter reacted after the India National Cricket Team all-rounder Hardik Pandya played a slow knock in the second T20I against the South Africa National Cricket Team. The second match of the four-match T20I series between series is taking place at St George's Park in Gqeberha.
India had a torrid outing with the bat in the ongoing second T20I against the South Africa National Cricket Team. The Men in Blue went on to lose wickets at regular intervals and were under pressure right from the start as South Africa National Cricket Team bowlers were all over the opposition with the ball.
Hardik Pandya couldn't get his timing right
With India losing wickets at regular intervals, Hardik Pandya held the one end and it was expected that he would take his team to the big total. But he struggled big time in his innings as he failed to score runs quickly and played one of his slowest knocks in T20Is.
Hardik Pandya, who came to bat at No.6, couldn't get his timing right as South Africa National Cricket Team bowlers didn't let him free his arms. The all-rounder refrained from giving a strike to Arshdeep Singh as he was confident of getting big runs for his team in the end.
Hardik Pandya remained unbeaten on 39 runs off 45 balls
Hardik Pandya remained unbeaten on 39 runs off 45 balls. He had a strike rate of just around 86, which is well above his standards, and a very high strike rate in T20s. The all-rounder also managed to hit just 4 fours and 1 six in the innings in the second T20I.
Overall, India didn't have a great time with the bat. Hardik Pandya was the top run-getter for the team, while Axar Patel was the second run-getter with a 27-run mark. Tilak Varma (20) also contributed as India National Cricket Team ended with a total of 124 runs for 6 in 20 overs.
