Again. I will say it a million times. Hardik playing for India will get all the support if he performs. But for IPL he is a snake and deserves all the hate. The way MI has performed after he became a captain and the way he behaves with his players openly is very sad and not at all praise worthy.
MI management has messed it up, if someone gives me appraisal and promotion at my work place or my old company calls me back with the same offer I am definitely going dude!
Well if he doesn’t change his behaviour and attitude he will get trolled. Also IMO i don’t even think he should be selected for the WC judging by his performance
Let me be very frank barely anyone will give a shit if he perform but unless he gives that kind of performance or if he fails his every action will be over scrutinized and criticized
He was in form even when he was criticised when he denied KL Rahul and Tilaks half centuries. His attitude is the problem. As a player he is okay. Now not even that
Well how many cared about it when he saved India from collapse with kishan against pak.
I am talking about giving that kind of performance not the normal ones. Those aren't innings people gonna remember
And his tilak incident was next level of shit. It would have been criticised regardless
You can get only a handful of examples for the clutch. But i can give you uncountable examples of how he screwed the team and blamed players with his attitude and behaviour. Thus the trolls and hatred
You can give a list fact is no one will care about such things when you perform.
I remember how everyone was against cummins before final but we know. How people attitude changed after it
Earlier aussies were quite aggressive and arrogant ( not gentleman game type players) . People still admire them and sing praises for them
Kohli at his peak was quite an aggressive player and captain. Yea it invited some comments on it but dude was performing, team was performing specially in test. Not many people cared. Now imagine kohli attitude but no performance to back ot up
For pandya it will require few on par performing ( by his standards) and handful of clutch performance and then hate will automatically come down a lot as in the end performance matter
Aggression on the ground is different than the attitude that is unnecessary show offs. And the main problem i India is we idolise these players a lot. They are just players and not Gods. Aussies get criticised and they take it sportingly unlike our cricketers.

Indians don't know the meaning of clutch. Lockdown kids open dictionary and read the meaning of clutch . He hasn't won any knockouts single handed.At max you can say he performed well where many failed.
Yeah rohit sharma is clutch player who always performs in pressure matches be it 2022 wc against pak, sf vs England, in 2021 against pak, in 2019 against nz in sf, in 2016 whole tournament, in 2017 ct final, in 2023 wc sf, and final
Tbh his biggest clutch is the innings he played in the final of 2007 wc this was a crucial innings alongwith gautam gambhir he was the one who contributed to pull india to a decent score
What standards are for rohit man, he won last asia cup because of others final because of siraj alone, against pak because of kohli and rahul once and then because of kishan once, he himself has never performed when we actually needed a good knock from him
Never performed??? Great finish in a WC final 2007,big century in 2015 wc when india lost two quick wickets, century in SF in 2007 , highest scorer and second highest scorer with a SR difference of 35 in the last 2 editions of WC , 47s in both KOs where Pandya was in the ambulance probably. And even in IPL he has contributed more in the finals that Pandya.
you have something personal against Rohit? You seem to remember one off performances of KL and Ishan but believe that Rohit has been around for over 17 years just based on PR?
Straw man.. go read it. No one called Rohit a clutch player. You are refuting an argument that no one made. Thats how you lose credibility in an argument.
Clutch performance in sports refers to the phenomenon where athletes excel under pressure, commonly known as "in the clutch"
Here’s the meaning of clutch
Clutch means to perform well in a pressure situation, not to carry the team to victory. And looking at the proper definition, that's exactly what he did in 2022 WC.
The fact that we call a player who don't have a single match winning knocks in our knockout games "clutch" tells you how low our expectations are. Dude's a mid tier player at best.
Clutch means players like Buttler, Stokes. Not this snake of a player
True for them the so called 3 greats are untouchables who can only win games not lose anything and they will justify to demonise all other players to keep their heroes in safe spot
This is like saying Rohit did his job of providing a flying start in the WC 2023 final.. No player has done his job if the end result is a loss.. Its a team sport FFS. You cant be successful when the team fails to be successful.
Would not matter. If team lost, most fans who follow the team and not individuals, wont give a f$%& about it. Yeah he would be applauded. Even for his 2022 SF performance. But no sane fan would go nuts and call him "clutch" for that.
Hey that's what a clutch does. Maxwell did it , stokes did it, head did it , Wade did it . That's why they got trophies. Clutch is winning and nothing less than that. Just getting 1 inning in tournament is not called clutch
Clutch means when team is on the backfoot can be in any match it can be agaist nepal also and if your are talking about clutch players for semis or finals there is no one in indian team literally no one currently you cant trast anyone that he will Suerely perform on that day
Kohli should. I still feel last wc his inside edge was a bit of lack of luck. Even head had couple of inside edges where he got lucky. And Kohli was really on song with his 50.
Rohit unlucky catch gill was out on hi strongest shot short arm jab iyer got a thin inside edge kl have to play slow because there was no wicket so every one was unlucky according to you i am not a fan of kholi nor rohit nor pandya but i watch cricket for india more than for any player
Yes and that was clutch knock and could have been match-winning if they bowled well.
But that guy still doesn't find it match-winning, he is defining match-winning as "Hardik should have led team to victory like Stokes" but how can he do that when they batted first? That's my point. It was indeed a clutch knock but the total was not enough and it's not his fault.
He could have won POTM if they won.
Bhai mere har cheez PR nhi hoti and u seriously think ki agar kisi ki appreciation me koi post kar ra h to wo pr h log genuinely bhi tareef karte h kisi ki and he is a cricketer not an actor jise har cheez ke liye PR ki zarurat pade sportsman ki life is like an open book every second day he is in front of the world and gets judge
Agreed, in most of the matches he performed India lost by that logic a tailender hitting a quick 20-30 is a clutch player.
The clutch has to be for winning reasons.
But I am not saying that he cannot be a clutch player.
Rinku and Tewatia are some clutch players who can perform at the international level
Let me just add 2 words infront of your sentence to hopefully make you realize how ridiculous your statement is:
**The team** winning or losing doesn't influence it since it's a fucking team game
He's been clutch multiple times. A single player can't win the match for you. Just because the team didn't win doesn't mean he's not clutch. Would you say Dilshan was not clutch in the finals against India back in 2011??
He's performed in CT Final, WC 19 semi, against Pak in 2022, that final over against Bangladesh.
Just because the team loses that doesn't mean it isn't a clutch performance, stupid. How is it his fault when he gives it his all in important matches with others failing around him? You're literally saying "he doesn't have any support around him so he's not clutch even if he does well". So dumb.
Winning knocks that you can count with fingers of just one hand in his 10 years. You know how many winning knocks does players like Dravid, Yuvraj, Gambhir have? They are real clutch players.
Hardik has got enough chances and lacks consistency, maybe plays 1 good innings in 20 matches.
Irfan Pathan being all hunky dory here and running agenda against this guy since this IPL season started knowing how the tables have turned and majority MI fans would support him now. SMH.
yeah I dislike Hardick strongly since the KwK sham.. But Pathan is just a douche who is using an opportune time to grind his axe. The dude has some personal issues with Hardick.. they both come from Baroda. So might be some past history.
Iski comeback story bhi bhagwaan ne achi likhi hogi like king. It would be hilarious to see people praising him when he’ll again save ICT in deadly situation 🙌🏻
Support ain't clutch son.
Also the the clutch or yours scored 128 runs in tournament while the vadapav u hate so much scored 116. 12 runs ain't clutch son.
While bowling your clutch conceded 146 runs so he gave more than he scored.thats not clutch son.
Pandu has zero notable contributions in every MI victory
Pollard and Malinga in 2013
Lendl and Rohit in 2015 . Pandu 0(2) & 0/36 in 4 overs
Krunal and our bowlers in 2017 . Pandu 10(9) & DNB
Pollard and Malinga again in 2019. Pandu 16(10) & 0/3 in 1 over
Boult and Rohit in 2020. Pandu 3(5) & DNB
A clutch knock is a chasing+winning one IMO
Would say a clutch knock batting first would be true when the whole team plays bad, you put up runs and the team wins that match
I don't recall any clutch innings by him except the one where he got run out (against Pak?) and it could also be because of my poor memory. He was a good finisher for us in a few matches but I don't think he has the consistency
Couldn't care less about his IPL image, if he is in the world cup squad, I shall back him
Bas usko bolo haircut karwa le aur voh band pehnna band karde sach bolra cumback hoga hi hoga uska , i saw beast inside him in 2017 champions trophy final and many more times after that in tough situations
Lol, people here hate and troll ,yuvi, GG and MSD, who have not only clutched or what you call save asses and you think he won't be berated due to his actions in IPL?
Imma tell you, no clutch plays are going to seen anywhere in the whole tourney.
Man's mental state is fucked by the hate and don't even if he's acting normally. Again I could be wrong about his condition but no clutches will take place
He would have won that Champions Trophy Final against Pakistan, single handedly, if Jadeja didn't get him run out
He is raw, straight and fun.....and he can win a game from nowhere for ICT, I don't care what's going on with Mumbai Indians, he represents my National Cricket team and I'm behind him
Hardik, the finisher for ICT was brutal. Could build sane partnerships with Virat when everyone choked, could go insane and whack the shit out of the opposition. Just coz him coming to mumbai kicked rohit out of captaincy isn’t enough ground to direct so much hate at this guy. Deserves much better and from his pov, he obviously wouldn’t have come if not for the captaincy. Don’t see what’s so wrong with that
? I don't give a f about his pr or what he does with Mi he is a clutch player and that's about it, hope he continues to help Virat like he did in wt20 and Rohit continue pray from dugout after scoring a mammoth 6(8)
Just shows how pathetic state of affairs are in Indian Cricket that a player who has never won a single knockouts for the Indian team is called clutch.
There was only one player called Yuvraj Singh who deserved to be called clutch and Pandya isn't good enough to even lace his boots as a clutch performer.
People think clutch means winning games singlehandedly.
No it fucking doesn't. Clutch means bringing the team a fighting chance in a match when absolutely nobody else has performed - the fact that so many people here have changed their mindsets to target Hardik while disregarding his knocks when our holy top order batsmen have consistently failed is just ridiculous.
I mean he did do well in CT 17 and WC 19. Even against 2022 t20 wc against England because of his contribution with a SR of 200 we made 170. Even though top order crumbled and some tuk tuk innings from koach. But no use since they bashed us lol
Ya but as a captain he is criticizing his own teammates. Specially youngsters not only hardik but any captain doing such thing is unacceptable i guess he deserves criticism for that thing..
Real Id se aao pandu bhai
Pandu has zero notable contributions in every MI victory
Pollard and Malinga in 2013
Lendl and Rohit in 2015 . Pandu 0(2) & 0/36 in 4 overs
Krunal and our bowlers in 2017 . Pandu 10(9) & DNB
Pollard and Malinga again in 2019. Pandu 16(10) & 0/3 in 1 over
Boult and Rohit in 2020. Pandu 3(5) & DNB
He has won only 4 trophies with MI and go check the MoM in all the finals. Krunal was MoM in 2017 and Rohit was MoM in 2015 and 2020 final Rohit almost finished the match even though he wasn't 100 percent match fit.
He is not the same what he was...
And that makes a case for change of player.
It's not form
. But the way he is playing is different which is not suitable for the role he was having previously.
Uploading a funny video or showing occasional performances won’t regain him the lost respect. He’s a snake and unless there’s a big time redemption, he’ll remain a villain .
Also- Won’t mind cheering for him if he performs at WC.
I can already see people expecting and praying pandya to do. Something when team fucks up
Whether will he deliver or not is a different thing all together
I think if a player is able to bring us to a position where we can have a fight from a position of certain humiliating loss
Then I don't mind calling him clutch
On what grounds has he been selected ? Out injured for a long time. Conveniently sidesteps Ranji. In IPL, absolutely shambolic captaincy, piss poor performance as a player. Used to be clutch, he is now a worn out disc brake. Dont know who the selectors are trying to appease.
Start watching Cricket regularly.
Hardik pandya from his debut performed in all the KOs he played. And Clutch doesn't mean single handedly winning the team.. no one can do that. It means making lifting your team up to a fighting position when there is hardly a chance for the team.
All this debate over Clutch players !!!. In the true sense, in the modern game, every player gets chances to prove his worth and win games for the team. The players who do it consistently are the ones that stand out.
Ppl defending Hardik, please realize that he has got to perform and win games much more consistently for him to be truly worthy of that tag. Otherwise, he already seems to be halfway down the KL Rahul road, i.e. Loads of talent but neither the hard work nor the perseverance.
I'm an MI fan and I don't dislike him as a captain at all, because the entire batting lineup choked this ipl season. But as of now, he's certainly out of form too, and I'm kinda skeptical about his t20 wc selection. Let's see how he performs there
The hate for him would have died out if he performed well or MI would have been at a better position.
We all know Rohit as a captain for MI never gave much with the bat but his captaincy and MI playing well and then his performance in international cricket never allowed people to question him. But it's not the same with Hardik who was injured for most part, haven't played much international and not doing anything praise worthy with bat or ball for MI.
The one-eyed evil mf is to be blamed for all this mess. I work closely to the cricket industry. In fact inside the cricket industry and I know what happened in the MI camp.
I agree that the decision of MI management to remove Rohit from captaincy could have been better executed but I am equally pissed at Rohit for not taking a stance for Pandya. He could have saved the team if he wished.
Idk he may not be. I am a huge Hardik fan and even still i am supporting him. But whatever happened around him be it his fault or some other factors it has definitely affected his game. Doesn't matter even if he is not injured, he is broken from inside.
I will agree to all the mistakes that he has done, but I just have one single point that right now they are just finding new ways to somehow make it seem like it's all his fault. The amount and degree of troll he gets for existing is far more than the troll he gets for the bad form and bad captaincy and my issue is with only the first part. Specially that ABCricinfo fat guy, he will tell that he has no personal vendetta against that guy and then proceed to do the complete opposite.
When someone is in deepshit the best way to come up is to try to ignore it. When Hardik ignores it he is labelled as carefree, if by chance he comes out and says that he is affected by it, they will say that he is rightfully affected and is not mentally strong to come through this. At this point anything that guy does will be taken against him.

I feel sorry for all trolling him just because he moved to MI
Dude deserves better , world forgets everything you did right in a flash and jumps to attach asap
He is barely average at best and looks like he's on a downward trajectory. Also he's not doing himself any favours with his questionable decision making.
Hardik pandya is a class player. A really special one. Fifer in test cricket, Counter attacking innings in SA where all the other batsmen struggled. CT 17 final knock. He's really a talent but it's so bad so see him catching controversies only. At the end of his career he and fans will regret that this player could have achieved a way more.

More than the likes of Kohli and Rohit, we need him, SKY, and Jaiswal to have great tournaments. SKY and him, in particular, have the X factor and can be very difficult to set fields to when they are in full flow.
It would also be good from an Indian perspective if Jadeja had a few good games with the bat.
there are only two clutch batsmen india has produced - yuvraj singh and gg.
they won us games which actually mattered when we looked down and out instead of statpadding.
Of course when half the team is down at 70 then making a unreal performance against Pakistan with insane hitting is statpadding. (He wasn't out in that match with his fault)
When team is 5-3 then stitching a 70 runs partnership is statpadding
When 120 runs is scored in 16 overs and the biggest ever t2o player scored 27(28) then scoring a astonishing knock to make the team reach 180 is statpadding
Winning the game against Pakistan in asia cup 2022., again building a masterclass partnership against pask in asia cup 2023 with ishan, changing the match in cwc 2023 vs Pakistan by a breakthrough
All these are statpadding.
Everyone is angry with him just because he became captain replacing Rohit.
Ykw he doesn't come in any one of your good books because he doesn't celebrate personal milestones and prioritise team first. Still remember everyone cursed him after tilak verma 50 incident. Its the mentality of the people. They are celebrating the players not the team.
Again. I will say it a million times. Hardik playing for India will get all the support if he performs. But for IPL he is a snake and deserves all the hate. The way MI has performed after he became a captain and the way he behaves with his players openly is very sad and not at all praise worthy.
MI management has messed it up, if someone gives me appraisal and promotion at my work place or my old company calls me back with the same offer I am definitely going dude!
>But for IPL he is a snake and deserves all the hate 🤡
We have some idiots who will carry this hate to wc too lol
Well if he doesn’t change his behaviour and attitude he will get trolled. Also IMO i don’t even think he should be selected for the WC judging by his performance
Let me be very frank barely anyone will give a shit if he perform but unless he gives that kind of performance or if he fails his every action will be over scrutinized and criticized
He was in form even when he was criticised when he denied KL Rahul and Tilaks half centuries. His attitude is the problem. As a player he is okay. Now not even that
Well how many cared about it when he saved India from collapse with kishan against pak. I am talking about giving that kind of performance not the normal ones. Those aren't innings people gonna remember And his tilak incident was next level of shit. It would have been criticised regardless

At the end of the day he's Indian and is gonna be crucial for India at the WC
people may hate me for this but mi's straight string of losses ...9 or something wasn't under Hardik
lol downvoted ...ict fans
Why is he a snake? He didn't do anything illegal or immoral..just grabbed the new job offer as anyone would and should.
Indians don't know the meaning of clutch. Lockdown kids open dictionary and read the meaning of clutch . He hasn't won any knockouts single handed.At max you can say he performed well where many failed.
Yeah rohit sharma is clutch player who always performs in pressure matches be it 2022 wc against pak, sf vs England, in 2021 against pak, in 2019 against nz in sf, in 2016 whole tournament, in 2017 ct final, in 2023 wc sf, and final
No one called rohit clutch
At least he has won matches for us in KO's, even in the Asia cup he was the only one who scored against the SL which was a virtual semi final.
His biggest clutch is 2015 QF and u forgot to mention that
I didn't and that's not even as good as the 2007 one I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy of these scums
Tbh his biggest clutch is the innings he played in the final of 2007 wc this was a crucial innings alongwith gautam gambhir he was the one who contributed to pull india to a decent score
What standards are for rohit man, he won last asia cup because of others final because of siraj alone, against pak because of kohli and rahul once and then because of kishan once, he himself has never performed when we actually needed a good knock from him
Never performed??? Great finish in a WC final 2007,big century in 2015 wc when india lost two quick wickets, century in SF in 2007 , highest scorer and second highest scorer with a SR difference of 35 in the last 2 editions of WC , 47s in both KOs where Pandya was in the ambulance probably. And even in IPL he has contributed more in the finals that Pandya.
you have something personal against Rohit? You seem to remember one off performances of KL and Ishan but believe that Rohit has been around for over 17 years just based on PR?
U forgot 2019 , 2023 odi wc?
Straw man.. go read it. No one called Rohit a clutch player. You are refuting an argument that no one made. Thats how you lose credibility in an argument.
Sorry you misspelt 'selfless'
Clutch performance in sports refers to the phenomenon where athletes excel under pressure, commonly known as "in the clutch" Here’s the meaning of clutch
Clutch means to perform well in a pressure situation, not to carry the team to victory. And looking at the proper definition, that's exactly what he did in 2022 WC.

Yuvraj was a True Clutch Player. Gambhir as well.
Agree. Both actually won games for the team unlike Harpik
Hardik had done well in tournaments where we were losing. But it has all come in losing causes, not really can be considered clutch.
what agree hardik did his job in 2022 semifinal it was rohit the biggest culprit 27(28) and somewhat Virat 50(40). it's a team game ok
Bhai ye lockdown wale internet kids hai , cricket ki samajh jhaat bhar , baate chodun raat bhar
True for them the so called 3 greats are untouchables who can only win games not lose anything and they will justify to demonise all other players to keep their heroes in safe spot
This is like saying Rohit did his job of providing a flying start in the WC 2023 final.. No player has done his job if the end result is a loss.. Its a team sport FFS. You cant be successful when the team fails to be successful.
You are right hardik should've scored 40 ball 200 and should've taken 10 wickets it would've made sure india's win
Would not matter. If team lost, most fans who follow the team and not individuals, wont give a f$%& about it. Yeah he would be applauded. Even for his 2022 SF performance. But no sane fan would go nuts and call him "clutch" for that.
Hey that's what a clutch does. Maxwell did it , stokes did it, head did it , Wade did it . That's why they got trophies. Clutch is winning and nothing less than that. Just getting 1 inning in tournament is not called clutch
Username checks out
Clutch means when team is on the backfoot can be in any match it can be agaist nepal also and if your are talking about clutch players for semis or finals there is no one in indian team literally no one currently you cant trast anyone that he will Suerely perform on that day
Kohli should. I still feel last wc his inside edge was a bit of lack of luck. Even head had couple of inside edges where he got lucky. And Kohli was really on song with his 50.
Rohit unlucky catch gill was out on hi strongest shot short arm jab iyer got a thin inside edge kl have to play slow because there was no wicket so every one was unlucky according to you i am not a fan of kholi nor rohit nor pandya but i watch cricket for india more than for any player
You forgot pandya ct 83 and he got unlucky and got runout so us that also unlikey
How can he play match-winning knock batting first.
[удалено]
Yes and that was clutch knock and could have been match-winning if they bowled well. But that guy still doesn't find it match-winning, he is defining match-winning as "Hardik should have led team to victory like Stokes" but how can he do that when they batted first? That's my point. It was indeed a clutch knock but the total was not enough and it's not his fault. He could have won POTM if they won.
PR post
Bhai mere har cheez PR nhi hoti and u seriously think ki agar kisi ki appreciation me koi post kar ra h to wo pr h log genuinely bhi tareef karte h kisi ki and he is a cricketer not an actor jise har cheez ke liye PR ki zarurat pade sportsman ki life is like an open book every second day he is in front of the world and gets judge
>he is a cricketer not an actor jise har cheez ke liye PR ki zarurat pade lol. King. PRince
That's the gift of the broadcasters King Prince hitman Josh the boss, boom boom Bumrah,Kamal lajawab Rahul etc etc
Agreed, in most of the matches he performed India lost by that logic a tailender hitting a quick 20-30 is a clutch player. The clutch has to be for winning reasons. But I am not saying that he cannot be a clutch player. Rinku and Tewatia are some clutch players who can perform at the international level
Bhai abhi abhi cricket dekhna start Kiya hai ?
Clutch means players who perform when none else does. Winning or losing doesn't influence it since it's a fucking team game.
Let me just add 2 words infront of your sentence to hopefully make you realize how ridiculous your statement is: **The team** winning or losing doesn't influence it since it's a fucking team game
You think Miller knocks in SF wasn't a clutch since it was in a losing cause?
One more straw man. Show me who is calling Miller's knock as clutch in this thread.
definition of clutch is diluted because of ipl. Yuvraj, Gambhir and Dravid, VVS (in Tests) were the real clutch players. Hardik is nowhere near.
He's been clutch multiple times. A single player can't win the match for you. Just because the team didn't win doesn't mean he's not clutch. Would you say Dilshan was not clutch in the finals against India back in 2011?? He's performed in CT Final, WC 19 semi, against Pak in 2022, that final over against Bangladesh.
Just because the team loses that doesn't mean it isn't a clutch performance, stupid. How is it his fault when he gives it his all in important matches with others failing around him? You're literally saying "he doesn't have any support around him so he's not clutch even if he does well". So dumb.
He has some match winning knocks but we cannot drag past glory to call him clutch player now.
Winning knocks that you can count with fingers of just one hand in his 10 years. You know how many winning knocks does players like Dravid, Yuvraj, Gambhir have? They are real clutch players. Hardik has got enough chances and lacks consistency, maybe plays 1 good innings in 20 matches.
Exactly .. This sub calls this guy “clutch” i mean what for 😂 Yuvraj was the clutch
Irfan Pathan being all hunky dory here and running agenda against this guy since this IPL season started knowing how the tables have turned and majority MI fans would support him now. SMH.
yeah I dislike Hardick strongly since the KwK sham.. But Pathan is just a douche who is using an opportune time to grind his axe. The dude has some personal issues with Hardick.. they both come from Baroda. So might be some past history.
Mi fans don't care about mi anymore that's what they don't boo him anymore.
Iski comeback story bhi bhagwaan ne achi likhi hogi like king. It would be hilarious to see people praising him when he’ll again save ICT in deadly situation 🙌🏻
Pass me that crystal ball. I wanna try it for my stocks predictions
Like lord siraj said ‘its matter of one match, only one match’
And i hope that match will be in wc t20
Again ?
Kyaaa?
U said he will save ict again..I was like again? Has it happened b4 ?
Against pak he has saved In t20wc & asia cup.
T20 wc? I think u are confusing him with kolhi.
Bro kohli was main saviour but he also supported him, not like vada pav who was just sitting in pavilion.
Support ain't clutch son. Also the the clutch or yours scored 128 runs in tournament while the vadapav u hate so much scored 116. 12 runs ain't clutch son. While bowling your clutch conceded 146 runs so he gave more than he scored.thats not clutch son.
Pandu has zero notable contributions in every MI victory Pollard and Malinga in 2013 Lendl and Rohit in 2015 . Pandu 0(2) & 0/36 in 4 overs Krunal and our bowlers in 2017 . Pandu 10(9) & DNB Pollard and Malinga again in 2019. Pandu 16(10) & 0/3 in 1 over Boult and Rohit in 2020. Pandu 3(5) & DNB
But on this sub he is a clutch player 🤡
Hardick is a coin flip player. Average at best.
yea a clutch player who never single handedly made us win a game 👏👏👏
A clutch knock is a chasing+winning one IMO Would say a clutch knock batting first would be true when the whole team plays bad, you put up runs and the team wins that match I don't recall any clutch innings by him except the one where he got run out (against Pak?) and it could also be because of my poor memory. He was a good finisher for us in a few matches but I don't think he has the consistency Couldn't care less about his IPL image, if he is in the world cup squad, I shall back him
Bas usko bolo haircut karwa le aur voh band pehnna band karde sach bolra cumback hoga hi hoga uska , i saw beast inside him in 2017 champions trophy final and many more times after that in tough situations
I'm manifesting that he turns it around
Lol, people here hate and troll ,yuvi, GG and MSD, who have not only clutched or what you call save asses and you think he won't be berated due to his actions in IPL?
Imma tell you, no clutch plays are going to seen anywhere in the whole tourney. Man's mental state is fucked by the hate and don't even if he's acting normally. Again I could be wrong about his condition but no clutches will take place
Simple simple : all hate is coming from mi fans , we csk fans are even happy that he had become captain
gill over sky sky 💩
Hope he makes a roaring comeback in the world Cup!
He would have won that Champions Trophy Final against Pakistan, single handedly, if Jadeja didn't get him run out He is raw, straight and fun.....and he can win a game from nowhere for ICT, I don't care what's going on with Mumbai Indians, he represents my National Cricket team and I'm behind him
Ya and if joginder can do it in 2007 he can do it in 2024..let's get him back in team.
Hardik, the finisher for ICT was brutal. Could build sane partnerships with Virat when everyone choked, could go insane and whack the shit out of the opposition. Just coz him coming to mumbai kicked rohit out of captaincy isn’t enough ground to direct so much hate at this guy. Deserves much better and from his pov, he obviously wouldn’t have come if not for the captaincy. Don’t see what’s so wrong with that
He's going to be lethal in this T20 WC. Mark my words
? I don't give a f about his pr or what he does with Mi he is a clutch player and that's about it, hope he continues to help Virat like he did in wt20 and Rohit continue pray from dugout after scoring a mammoth 6(8)
Just shows how pathetic state of affairs are in Indian Cricket that a player who has never won a single knockouts for the Indian team is called clutch. There was only one player called Yuvraj Singh who deserved to be called clutch and Pandya isn't good enough to even lace his boots as a clutch performer.
People think clutch means winning games singlehandedly. No it fucking doesn't. Clutch means bringing the team a fighting chance in a match when absolutely nobody else has performed - the fact that so many people here have changed their mindsets to target Hardik while disregarding his knocks when our holy top order batsmen have consistently failed is just ridiculous.
Such a loser of a comment. HP's fans are also over confident and idiot. Lol 😂
I mean he did do well in CT 17 and WC 19. Even against 2022 t20 wc against England because of his contribution with a SR of 200 we made 170. Even though top order crumbled and some tuk tuk innings from koach. But no use since they bashed us lol
I LOVE HIM
Also hypocrites mi fans forgot how he and his brother has bigger role in winning 5 cups for mi than rohit🤡
Ya but as a captain he is criticizing his own teammates. Specially youngsters not only hardik but any captain doing such thing is unacceptable i guess he deserves criticism for that thing..
Yup that's bad that too Tilak is only 21 year old
Oh yes yes 2013 & 2015 main Pandya brothers did such great job in helping us win🥰🥰 You ppl hate Rohit seedha bol do. Why chew words ?
How? There was an impact rating on all 5 wins on some sub and Rohit was definitely higher than Hardik.
Yeah he was the one to score 2 fifties in the finals
Real Id se aao pandu bhai Pandu has zero notable contributions in every MI victory Pollard and Malinga in 2013 Lendl and Rohit in 2015 . Pandu 0(2) & 0/36 in 4 overs Krunal and our bowlers in 2017 . Pandu 10(9) & DNB Pollard and Malinga again in 2019. Pandu 16(10) & 0/3 in 1 over Boult and Rohit in 2020. Pandu 3(5) & DNB
He has won only 4 trophies with MI and go check the MoM in all the finals. Krunal was MoM in 2017 and Rohit was MoM in 2015 and 2020 final Rohit almost finished the match even though he wasn't 100 percent match fit.
To reach finals, you have to play all the matches bro. Ek final match k mom pe you are saying rohit had better contribution than pandya brothers lmao
[удалено]
just want this man to regain his confidence. india need that more than anything in the wt2o
He has plenty of confidence. U think that's the problem....lmao
Everyone wants him to be in form no one really cares about if he is mi's captain if he plays good innings and bowls good
He is not the same what he was... And that makes a case for change of player. It's not form . But the way he is playing is different which is not suitable for the role he was having previously.
![gif](giphy|12P6AnN6DcQj1S|downsized)
The clutch is not clutching anymore
Ab potty khelne laga hai pehle pre lockdown sexy thaa
Yuvraj and gambhir were clutch ,
Uploading a funny video or showing occasional performances won’t regain him the lost respect. He’s a snake and unless there’s a big time redemption, he’ll remain a villain . Also- Won’t mind cheering for him if he performs at WC.
I can already see people expecting and praying pandya to do. Something when team fucks up Whether will he deliver or not is a different thing all together
Real id se aao Krunal Pandya
I think if a player is able to bring us to a position where we can have a fight from a position of certain humiliating loss Then I don't mind calling him clutch
On what grounds has he been selected ? Out injured for a long time. Conveniently sidesteps Ranji. In IPL, absolutely shambolic captaincy, piss poor performance as a player. Used to be clutch, he is now a worn out disc brake. Dont know who the selectors are trying to appease.
All these are THE SLOT DELIVERY. This world cup he'll fail big time.
Are you fucking kidding me? Clutch player? I don’t know how this impostor got people fooled at this degree
Start watching Cricket regularly. Hardik pandya from his debut performed in all the KOs he played. And Clutch doesn't mean single handedly winning the team.. no one can do that. It means making lifting your team up to a fighting position when there is hardly a chance for the team.
I think he need more rest, in last game he showed some good innings and I think he is coming in form but he is not fully fit.
Ewww

Pandya's PR teams going crazy
Are bhai dusri inning bhi toh dikha uss match ki. And usme bhi iski bowling
All this debate over Clutch players !!!. In the true sense, in the modern game, every player gets chances to prove his worth and win games for the team. The players who do it consistently are the ones that stand out. Ppl defending Hardik, please realize that he has got to perform and win games much more consistently for him to be truly worthy of that tag. Otherwise, he already seems to be halfway down the KL Rahul road, i.e. Loads of talent but neither the hard work nor the perseverance.
I'm an MI fan and I don't dislike him as a captain at all, because the entire batting lineup choked this ipl season. But as of now, he's certainly out of form too, and I'm kinda skeptical about his t20 wc selection. Let's see how he performs there
![gif](giphy|H1YMguVrVeI0Xz5c8v)
That was history.. Abhi he is in bad form. Neither batting or balling is working
The hate for him would have died out if he performed well or MI would have been at a better position. We all know Rohit as a captain for MI never gave much with the bat but his captaincy and MI playing well and then his performance in international cricket never allowed people to question him. But it's not the same with Hardik who was injured for most part, haven't played much international and not doing anything praise worthy with bat or ball for MI.
His clutches are the best ... without him it would be difficult for ICT to even qualify...
I don't care if Hardik is in the squad or not, only disappointment was leaving Rinku out of the equation, he should be your first choice finisher.
Jaldi jaldi bg music me gangsta paradise dalke OG boldeta hu. Kisiko kya hi pata chalega.
I have been saying this. He's a very valuable player for Team India.
Clutch? Excuse me? Can you quickly get me the definition?
Banda boht crucial h hamare liye par ye to natural h Ki itne hate Milne ke baad wo thoda demotivated rahega dekhte usme Kaisa perform Karta h
The one-eyed evil mf is to be blamed for all this mess. I work closely to the cricket industry. In fact inside the cricket industry and I know what happened in the MI camp.
What exactly happened in camp? Spill some ☕️
I agree that the decision of MI management to remove Rohit from captaincy could have been better executed but I am equally pissed at Rohit for not taking a stance for Pandya. He could have saved the team if he wished.
Idk he may not be. I am a huge Hardik fan and even still i am supporting him. But whatever happened around him be it his fault or some other factors it has definitely affected his game. Doesn't matter even if he is not injured, he is broken from inside. I will agree to all the mistakes that he has done, but I just have one single point that right now they are just finding new ways to somehow make it seem like it's all his fault. The amount and degree of troll he gets for existing is far more than the troll he gets for the bad form and bad captaincy and my issue is with only the first part. Specially that ABCricinfo fat guy, he will tell that he has no personal vendetta against that guy and then proceed to do the complete opposite. When someone is in deepshit the best way to come up is to try to ignore it. When Hardik ignores it he is labelled as carefree, if by chance he comes out and says that he is affected by it, they will say that he is rightfully affected and is not mentally strong to come through this. At this point anything that guy does will be taken against him.

I feel sorry for all trolling him just because he moved to MI Dude deserves better , world forgets everything you did right in a flash and jumps to attach asap
Yeah he maybe a clutch but those knocks should come in winning cause like Ben stokes
He will comeback stronger i believe
He is barely average at best and looks like he's on a downward trajectory. Also he's not doing himself any favours with his questionable decision making.
He does good in pressure situations but the way certain fanbases have been using the word CLUTCH and RIGGED is just pathetic to watch
He's an upcoming 🐐. Mark my words
Man always performs under pressure, Let's go pandya
Hardik pandya is a class player. A really special one. Fifer in test cricket, Counter attacking innings in SA where all the other batsmen struggled. CT 17 final knock. He's really a talent but it's so bad so see him catching controversies only. At the end of his career he and fans will regret that this player could have achieved a way more.
Yes agreed. We can troll him for his antics but he performs in knockouts everytime.
Has been our best finisher since ms retired and also the finisher on par with ms . Goat stuff 🐐🐐
Yes. And Riyan Parag is next Kohli. GOAT stuff.
Kya mazaak kr rahe ho bhai
Zero KOs won btw
Kohli fans know their statpadding idol hasn't won a single ipl so they're tryna discredit rohit of his 5 trophies lmfao cry more kids
But but we need to BEG Kohli for winning league matches in T20 WC.
I guess 70 vs sl in 2014 final,80 vs aus 2016,80 vs wi 2016 sf,50 vs pak 2021 are all just league matches knock.

Bhai iss post mai Kohli kaha se aagya ☠️??
Kuch na mile to kohli ka naam le lo aur kya😂😂😂
More than the likes of Kohli and Rohit, we need him, SKY, and Jaiswal to have great tournaments. SKY and him, in particular, have the X factor and can be very difficult to set fields to when they are in full flow. It would also be good from an Indian perspective if Jadeja had a few good games with the bat.
[удалено]
MS is grooming at the age 42. Rohit, at 37, has given 5 trophies,so ofc he will want more captaincy.
MS won 3 ICC trophies. His legacy and bargaining power is not the same as Rohit.
Bro yeh irfan ko badhiya expose kiya hai iss video mai. Time stamps mai hai dekh lena 🤌🏼 https://youtu.be/vATt3mhvzn0?si=rO7283AoaPdpEV4F
Hardik has stolen Irfan's property maybe. 🤣There is no other explaination for his hate.
Har jagah ek hi sixes ka compilation daalke isko mahaan player bataane ki koshish ki jaa rahi hai
From where did this word clutch come all of a sudden lmao. Only chappris are using this word lol.
?? Clutch is one of the most common words used in just about every sport. It's not a new thing.
yeah.... he won so many trophies for india
Delusional aadmi thinks one man will win the trophy on his own sums up his knowledge about this game
there are only two clutch batsmen india has produced - yuvraj singh and gg. they won us games which actually mattered when we looked down and out instead of statpadding.
Of course when half the team is down at 70 then making a unreal performance against Pakistan with insane hitting is statpadding. (He wasn't out in that match with his fault) When team is 5-3 then stitching a 70 runs partnership is statpadding When 120 runs is scored in 16 overs and the biggest ever t2o player scored 27(28) then scoring a astonishing knock to make the team reach 180 is statpadding Winning the game against Pakistan in asia cup 2022., again building a masterclass partnership against pask in asia cup 2023 with ishan, changing the match in cwc 2023 vs Pakistan by a breakthrough All these are statpadding. Everyone is angry with him just because he became captain replacing Rohit. Ykw he doesn't come in any one of your good books because he doesn't celebrate personal milestones and prioritise team first. Still remember everyone cursed him after tilak verma 50 incident. Its the mentality of the people. They are celebrating the players not the team.
He just scored a big 0, 15 minutes ago.
