3. Appointed Hardik Pandya as T20I Captain
The BCCI appointed Hardik Pandya as T20I captain without any prior experience of captaincy in International Cricket. Not just captaincy, but he also has issues with his fitness, which most of the time rule him out of the game.
Another reason is that he has been very inconsistent with the bat as well, which has been a concern for a very long time now. His captaincy came into question many times, and as a result, the Indian team lost a T20I series against the West Indies.
The vice-captain of the Indian Cricket Team’s decision comes into question when he doesn’t utilize Mukesh Kumar’s overs and just uses him at the death in the T20I series against the West Indies. The same happened with Yuzvendra Chahal when Pandya didn’t bowl Chahal’s full quota of overs when he was on top of West Indies batters, and India lost that match.
However, Fans think he still needs to learn a lot of things to make the proper decisions in the match.
