'Virat just wanted me to...': Hardik Pandya reveals pep talk with Kohli after India crush West Indies in 3rd ODI
Hindustan TimesWith Team India opting to rest veteran batters Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma for the second time in the recently concluded One Day International series, the onus was on stand-in skipper Hardik Pandya to deliver the goods for the Men In Blue. Hardik not only marshalled his troops in the series decider, but the star all-rounder also played a blinder of a knock in the 3rd ODI to help India thrash the West Indies at the Brian Lara Stadium on Tuesday. The former Indian skipper had a pep talk with Pandya, who successfully replaced Rohit as India's captain in the 3rd ODI against the West Indies. Reflecting on India's impressive win over Shai Hope and Co. in the 3rd ODI, stand-in skipper Pandya revealed that he had a wonderful chat with Kohli in the lead-up to the series decider at Trinidad.
