"Hardik Pandya is the future of Indian team..!" Navjot Singh Sidhu made a big claim
- Former cricketer Navjot Sidhu is seen doing commentary in IPL.
- Sidhu named Hardik Pandya as the next captain of the white ball team.
- Navjot Sidhu said a big thing about Rohit Sharma-Virat Kohli
Former Indian cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu has once again entered the field of commentary. Currently he is seen doing commentary in IPL. Meanwhile Navjot Singh Sidhu talked about RCB, MI, Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya. Sidhu named Hardik Pandya as the next captain of the Indian white ball team. He also explained why Bengaluru could not win the IPL title despite Virat Kohli being in the team.
A situation where Kohli is fighting alone in RCB
Even in IPL 2024, the condition of the RCB team looks bad. Bengaluru has not even won the IPL title yet. Let us tell you that Virat Kohli has also captained the Bangalore team for years. Now he is playing just as a player. While Faf du Plessis is handling the captaincy.
Sidhu said a big thing about Kohli
In this matter, Sidhu said that Kohli seems to be fighting alone. Nobody supports him. This is the reason why the condition of RCB is looking bad. If one player can do everything then Sachin Tendulkar and Sunil Gavaskar would have also done a lot. RCB has players like Du Plessis, Maxwell, but no one is supporting Kohli.
Hardik Pandya is the future of Indian team
Regarding Hardik Pandya, who is captaining Mumbai Indians in the IPL, Sidhu said, 'Hardik Pandya is the future of the Indian team. Rohit Sharma is present. Rohit is currently 36-37 years old and will remain there for two more years. He is a great captain and player. When I look at it it's like time has stopped. But we have to prepare a player who can take charge of the team after Rohit.
Bumrah proved himself in the test
Sidhu said that I am not advocating giving Test captaincy to Hardik Pandya. When Rohit and Virat were out, Hardik took over the captaincy of T20 for the whole year. BCCI has done a lot of work on this. I think Hardik Pandya is a natural choice in T20-ODI cricket. When you look for the red ball (Test), BCCI has already made a plan and that is Jasprit Bumrah. We talk about Virat, we talk about Dhoni, but Jasprit Bumrah bears the burden of your expectations very well. He has captained the Test team in England. Bumrah deserves to captain the Indian team in Tests.
