Hardik Pandya made a sensational comeback in the T20 World Cup 2024 after being ripped apart by the public on social media and at the ground for replacing Rohit Sharma as Mumbai Indians’ captain. The all-rounder defended 16 runs off the last over in the Final against South Africa as India lifted the trophy. Moreover, he bagged the Player of the Match against Bangladesh during the Super 8 stages of the tournament.
Courtesy of his match-winning performances, the all-rounder has ranked up his points in the ICC rankings and is sharing the first spot with Sri Lankan allrounder Wanindu Hasaranga. Pandya was effective with his spell in the Final as he picked up marauding Heinrich Klaasen to bring back India into the game. Bowling the final over, he sent David Miller packing on the first ball as India made a resounding comeback to win the cup.
