Hardik Pandya could have been valuable addition for India in WTC final: Ponting

Batting legend Ricky Ponting feels that India should have picked Hardik Pandya in their squad for the World Test Championships final against Australia in London, saying his all-round abilities could have turned out to be the deciding factor in the one-off game. ".I thought about the other day for India in this game is how valuable someone like Hardik Pandya could be in a one-off Test match," Ponting wrote for the ICC Review. The former Australia captain, also the head coach of Delhi Capitals in the IPL, said Pandya could have been the X-factor for the Indian team in the WTC final beginning on June 7. Pandya led Gujarat Titans to maiden IPL triumph in 2022 but lost to Chennai Super Kings in this season's final on Monday.
