New Delhi: At a time when cricket enthusiasts and veterans are heaping praises on Shikhar Dhawan for his crucial ton in India’s World Cup match against Australia, former Australian cricketer Brad Hogg believes it was all-rounder Hardik Pandya’s inning which took the game away.
Taking to Twitter, Hogg posted a video analysing Australia’s match against India, in which he said Pandya’s inning was the turning point of the game. “India (scored) 352, brilliant hundred by Shikhar Dhawan and he continues his World Cup form, absolutely sensational player in this tournament....
But the turning point of the game was when Carey dropped Pandya off the first ball of his inning; he then went on and made 48 runs off the next 27 deliveries. He took the game away from Australia,” Hogg said in the video.
