Hardik is many among Indian players who have benefited a lot from the IPL and made into the national cricket team, after impressing the selectors season after season.
Hardik was one of the standout performers for his side as they lifted their record 4th IPL title, after defeating MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by one run in the final last year.

Despite a terrific IPL, Hardik’s season was marred by several injuries which kept him out of action for the majority of the season, with his international appearance coming in September 2019. He even had to undergo a surgery in the UK to treat his back problem.
After a long layoff, Hardik is raring to go and prove his mettle once again in this year’s IPL and is practicing hard to get the desired results, so that he can give all his fans a reason to smile amid these worrying times.
