Hyderabad: Hardik Pandya played a gem of an innings as he smashed 63 off 33 balls in the semi-finals against England. His brilliant innings has given India a chance in this game. Batting under pressure, he smashed 4 fours and 5 sixes in his 63-run innings and reached 50 in just 19 balls.

India desperately needed Hardik to fire after the early dismissal of Suyrakumar Yadav. The latter has been the backbone of India’s middle order in the T20World Cup, but his failure today gave Hardik Pandya an opportunity to showcase his skills and demolish the bowling side. Cricket fans from India are going crazy over his innings and they are taking to Twitter to praise his innings. With over 2.5 k tweets, #HardikPandya started to trend on Twitter.

After being asked to bat first by England, India lost an early wicket in the form of KL Rahul. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli stitched a 47-run partnership between them before Rohit was dismissed by Chrish Jordan when he tried to up the ante. Virat played an anchor role to reach his 50 and established another crucial 61-run partnership with Hardik Pandya. India rode on Hardik’s stunning fifty to register a score of 168 runs on the scoreboard.
