Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya showcased his exceptional batting prowess in the first T20I against Bangladesh in Gwalior, leaving fans in awe with a stunning "no-look" boundary. Pandya's unbeaten 39 off 16 deliveries propelled India to a comfortable seven-wicket victory, chasing down the target of 128 with ease.
Pandya's destructive batting display was highlighted by three consecutive fours off Taskin Ahmed, including the remarkable no-look shot that sailed over the wicket-keeper's head. The video of the shot has gone viral on social media, showcasing Pandya's incredible skill and confidence.
Bangladesh's innings began with early setbacks, as Arshdeep Singh dismissed both openers cheaply. Skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mehidy Hasan Miraz provided some resistance, but Varun Chakravarthy, Mayank Yadav, and Washington Sundar kept the Indian bowlers in control. Pandya also contributed with a wicket towards the end.
In response, India's chase was anchored by Pandya's blistering knock. Sanju Samson and Suryakumar Yadav also made significant contributions, but it was Pandya's unbeaten innings that sealed the victory for India.
Pandya's performance has been widely praised, with fans and experts alike marveling at his ability to combine power and finesse. His no-look boundary has become an instant highlight, demonstrating his exceptional hand-eye coordination and quick reflexes.
The victory gives India a 1-0 lead in the three-match T20I series. The second match will be played in Rajkot on October 8, with Bangladesh looking to level the series and India aiming to extend their advantage.
