The Indian team have been in blistering form, especially in the final T20I against Bangladesh. The T20 World Champions set a new record for India’s highest innings total as they smashed 297 runs thanks to a century by Sanju Samson, a fifty by Suryakumar Yadav and Pandya’s quickfire 47 runs in 18 balls.
Pandya’s exploits on the field resulted in him winning the Player of the Series award as he continues to be India’s premier limited-overs all-rounder. In the post-match presentation, he credited the captain and the coach for giving them complete freedom to express themselves on the field, which has now resulted in a new level of power-hitting being unleashed with the willow.
The Indian side will shift their focus to Tests once again as the team takes on New Zealand at home for a three-match series.
The first Test will be played at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. This would be followed by the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune playing host for the second game beginning on October 24 and finally the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai for the final match of the series.
Pandya would be expected to be back in action for a four-match T20I series against South Africa which will begin in November later this year.
