India captain Hardik Pandya under fire….AGAIN!!!! The third T20I between India and West Indies crucial for India, and Captain Hardik Pandya criticized once more for his “selfish” leadership.
Tilak Varma criticized for Hardik Pandya’s decision to deny him a century. When India needed two runs to win with 14 balls remaining, the batter needed one run to reach his half-century.
The all-arounder scored a goal to win the match. With four boundaries and a six, Tilak Varma left stranded at 49 from 37 balls.
The captain got himself into trouble by deciding to end the game on his own. Internet users were furious for “denying” Tilak Varma a 50-year anniversary.
Never seen a SELFISH Player like Hardik Pandya, Tilak was batting at 49 in hisa third game & Hardik finished the match with the six,this is how the LEADER should be?

They made insulting remarks about the India captain.
In the five-match T20I series against India, the home team, West Indies, is ahead 2-1.
It is important to note that Hardik Pandya received criticism for his bowling decisions after the team lost the second T20I. Despite the fact that the hosts needed 23 runs to win off 24 balls with four overs remaining and two wickets in hand, the team was getting close to a series-leveling victory.
Instead of bringing spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who was the star of the show, captain Hardik Pandya made the puzzling choice to bring other bowlers. For the 17th over, the all-arounder inserted pacer Mukesh Kumar into the attack. The six deliveries resulted in three runs.

The 18th over bowled by Arshdeep Singh, not Yuzvendra Chahal, as the crowd had anticipated. It turned out to be an expensive error as West Indies scored nine runs as a result.
Hardik Pandya continued with Mukesh Kumar as Windies needed a run-a-ball 12 to win. The hosts had to use five deliveries to finish the run chase.
