India’s dashing allrounder Hardik Pandya turns 31 on October 11, 2024, and his fans are celebrating his happy birthday. It’s been a mixed year for Hardik Pandya from returning to Mumbai Indians as a captain to going through a heart breaking divorce. But Hardik ignored all the noises that advised him to back down and keep going with the flow.
Pandya played a key role in the T20 World Cup 2024 both with bat and ball, returning as a champion. He stopped all the booing and constant nagging.
Pandya was born on October 11, 1993, in a very small town named Choryasi, Gujarat. During his career, he broke several records, as he became one of the top Indian all-rounders. The journey was not easy for him as he faced many challenges throughout his career.
Here we are celebrating one of the sensational all-rounder Hardik Pandya’s birthday and look into his top 7 records.
Here is the list of the top 7 best records of Kung FU Pandya –
- In a recent Ind vs Ban match, Hardik Pandya achieved the rare feat of finishing a T20I match for India with a six a total of five times. He broke Virat Kohli’s previous record of four times.
