Hardik Pandya was the highest scorer for India and Man of the Match played a match-winning knock against Pakistan. It was the same opponent in 2018 when Pandya had gotten injured and had to miss out on cricket.
After the game, Hardik Pandya was seen in conversation with Ravindra Jadeja where he talked about his time and struggle from that period till now and how he has overcome that.

“I was remembering it all. I was stretchered off at the same venue against the same opponent in the 2018 Asia Cup. You feel a sense of achievement because the things that have happened in the past, today I got an opportunity. The journey is beautiful. The fruits of our journey come to us, but behind the scenes, a lot of people do not get credit who walk along with us,” he said.
From @hardikpandya7's emotional Asia Cup journey to @imjadeja's solid batting display! 👍 👍
