Is Hardik Pandya Ready To Bowl Against England In T20Is?

Hardik Pandya has been out of bowling action since September 2019. The all-rounder has been since then, used as a proper batsman and given the role of a finisher. 

However, Pandya has been practicing to make a comeback with the ball in hand and utilize both his abilities on the cricket field. In the Australia tour as well, he bowled a few overs but not with his full strength. 

The all-rounder got picked in India's squad for England tests but didn't feature in any of the games. It is still unclear for which role he got picked - a pure batsman or a batting all-rounder. 

Yet, being picked in the squad has helped Pandya to add back his bowling strength. He was seen bowling in the nets throughout the series. 

Now that the test series is done and dusted and India now moves to the limited-overs format, it is time for Pandya to test how much strength he has regained. 

In the video posted by him on Twitter, he was looking well prepared to not only hit the ball out of the ground but also to trick the batsmen with his bowling abilities. 

India will play five T20Is in Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium before moving to Pune for the three-match ODI series against England. They beat England by 3-1 in the four-match test series.
