India's star all-rounder Hardik Pandya had a net session to remember at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Hardik, who is India's go to all-rounder in the white-ball circuit is known for clean hitting, flamboyant attitude, and classic bowling was looking in jolly mood ahead of the all-important clash against South Africa on 22 February in Super 8 of T20 World Cup 2026.
India will be facing South Africa, West Indies and Zimbabwe in Super 8 of T20 World Cup. In the group stage, India won all their 4 matches against United States of America, Namibia, Pakistan, and Netherlands. It will be interesting to see if India can continue its form against Proteas - who have also won all their matches at the Group Stage.

Hardik Pandya has chipped in with five wickets in the four matches at an average of 22.20, a strike rate of 16.80, and an economy of 7.92, with his best bowling figures coming against Pakistan in Colombo where he registered 2/16.
Hardik has been very consistent with the bat too - failing just once against Pakistan. It will be interesting to see if Hardik can continue his fine run at the Super 8 when team requries the most.
