Kieron Pollard will always be my inspiration: Hardik Pandya after 2nd T20I heroics vs Australia
India TodayIndia star Hardik Pandya, who helped India clinch the T20 series 2-0 vs Australia in Sydney, revealed that West Indies all-rounder Kieron Pollard will always be his inspiration when it comes to finishing matches for his country and franchise. People have carried the confidence from IPL, I was batting well in the IPL and during the lockdown, I planned on how to finish the matches," Hardik Pandya said during the post-match press conference. Pandya shone bright with the bat in the limited-overs matches against Australia, helping the visitors claim the T20 series after two big losses in the preceding ODI rubber. "I have batted in this manner in the past as well, it is just that my performances are getting highlighted now, we have always been top-heavy and the top three score runs most of the time, I think this is the first time where we have got the opportunity to step it up and do it, I think I am in a very good zone and I am not getting overwhelmed with the situation, it is my job to finish the matches and I did it well tonight.
