IND vs PAK: As an all-rounder, I have triple burden, Hardik Pandya expressed his pain.

Team India’s star all-rounder Hardik Pandya says that as a multi-skilled cricketer, his workload is double or sometimes even triple that of a specialist batsman or bowler, so his point cannot be denied.
The Indian team was bundled out for 266 runs in the rain-affected opening match against arch-rivals Pakistan in the Asia Cup here, in which Pandya had contributed 87 runs. Hardik is such a player whose ‘stress fracture’ of the lower back had become a threat to his career and due to which he remained out of international cricket for a long time.
This Baroda player has improved a lot after being given the national T20 captaincy and he is bowling at great speed again. Pandya told ‘Star Sports’, ‘As an all-rounder, my workload is double or triple compared to anyone else. When a batsman of the team comes to the crease after finishing his batting, his work is finished. But I will still bowl after that.
He said, ‘So for me all the management and everything happens during the session or during my training or pre-season camp.’ He said, ‘When the match starts, it depends on the need of the team as to how many overs will be required for me. Because if 10 overs are not required then there is no use of bowling 10 overs. But if needed, I will bowl 10 overs.
Hardik said, ‘I have always believed that I give myself a chance to succeed, which happens by watching the game.’ He said, ‘I have realized that no matter what happens, you should support yourself, you should believe that you are the best in the world. This does not guarantee your success but it moves you towards being successful, so support yourself.
The competition between India and Pakistan is always high voltage. Fans are desperate for this. When the match between India and Pakistan was washed out due to rain on September 2, the fans expressed a lot of disappointment. Keeping this in view, a provision of reserve day has been made for the Super Four match.
India will have a lot of expectations from its top order against Pakistan. Especially from Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill. Both the batsmen were out cheaply in the last match against Pakistan. Virat Kohli also got bowled while tampering with the outside ball. These three will have to score runs.
Shubman Gill, in the pre-match press conference, underlined why Indian batsmen fail in front of Pakistani fast bowling attack. He said that we are not used to this kind of bowling and we rarely get a chance to play against Pakistan.
