In an exclusive chat with senior reporter Sabyasachi Bagchi of Xtra Time, recently retired Indian bowling coach Paras Mhambrey addressed the inclusion of Hardik Pandya in the T20 World Cup 2024 squad, a decision that sparked controversy. Not only was Pandya selected, but he was also appointed as the deputy to Rohit Sharma.
Reflecting on Pandya's journey, Paras Mhambrey described it as a challenging period that lasted six to seven months. He noted the difficulty any player would face during such a phase, especially when criticized by their home ground team. He highlighted the mental challenges Pandya endured but emphasized that life is cyclical. He also pointed out Pandya's resilience, particularly when he defended the last over to win the World Cup. Paras Mhambrey praised Pandya's mental strength and consistent work ethic despite obstacles, expressing immense happiness for his valuable contribution as a fast-bowling all-rounder who effectively balances the team.
