It has been close to three years since Hardik Pandya last played Test cricket. The flamboyant all-rounder had featured in India's tour to England in 2018 before a series of niggling injuries hampered his career and made him unavailable for red ball tours. Hardik has now recovered from his back injury after having undergone surgery after the 2019 World Cup, but the all-rounder is not fit for bowling yet. The 27-year-old has represented India in 11 Tests, scoring 532 runs at an average of 31.29, and has picked 17 wickets overall. Pandya has a Test century against Sri Lanka in Sir Lanka, while he also picked his first five-wicket haul against England in 2018.
