There are only 2-3 players like Hardik Pandya in the world: Gautam Gambhir

Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir has heaped praise on Hardik Pandya, calling him one of the rarest all-rounders in world cricket. Pandya played a crucial role in India’s ICC Champions Trophy 2025 triumph, contributing with both bat and ball.

As the only seam-bowling all-rounder in the Indian squad, Pandya provided much-needed balance to the team. He was often used as the second seamer behind Mohammed Shami and played vital finishing knocks with the bat, showcasing his ability to handle pressure in crunch situations.

Gautam Gambhir on Hardik Pandya’s Rare Skill Set

Speaking on Star Sports, Gambhir praised Pandya’s ability to deliver under pressure, calling him a game-changer in white-ball cricket.

“Hardik Pandya is a great player under pressure. There are only two-three players like him in the world. He has the ability to play big shots in difficult times, and his impact is fantastic.”

Gambhir emphasized that Pandya’s all-round abilities make him a priceless asset for India, especially in white-ball cricket, where his power-hitting and bowling versatility bring balance to the squad.

India’s Champions Trophy 2025 Triumph

India lifted the Champions Trophy for the third time after a dominant campaign, with all-rounders playing a significant role. Alongside Pandya, players like Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, and Shivam Dube contributed to India’s success, providing depth in both batting and bowling.

With Pandya fully fit and in top form, he remains an integral part of India’s plans for upcoming ICC events, and Gambhir’s backing further solidifies his importance in the squad.
