Hardik Pandya, who is being trolled due to his poor batting and bowling, as well as average captaincy, is going to be seen in the field once again in IPL 2026. It was being claimed that this player will not play in the match against Bengaluru but now the news has come that Pandya is going to play this match. Captain Hardik Pandya did not go to Raipur with the Mumbai Indians players on Wednesday, but it is being told that there are some more players who have not gone to Raipur and Pandya will go there with them. It is expected that he will be fit for the next Indian Premier League match against RCB on Sunday.
Hardik Pandya did not play against Lucknow
Hardik Pandya could not play against Lucknow due to back strain. However, his injury is said to be minor and a team source said that he was advised to rest in the match against LSG. But he will captain the team in this do or die match against the RCB team led by Rajat Patidar. Let us tell you that Mumbai Indians is at 9th place in the points table. This team has won only 3 out of 10 matches and has lost 7. Now they will have to win every match to keep their hopes of reaching the playoffs alive. The excellent form of Rohit Sharma and Rickleton has raised hopes of winning the coming matches.
Pandya has failed
Hardik Pandya has proved to be a miserable failure in IPL 2026. This right-handed batsman has been able to score only 146 runs in 8 matches at an average of 20.8 this season. Pandya's performance in bowling has been even more disappointing. This player could take only four wickets in 8 matches and his economy rate is 11.9 runs per over.
