Indian cricket team all-rounder Hardik Pandya broke the internet with a brilliant ‘no-look’ boundary during the first T20I encounter against Bangladesh in Gwalior on Sunday. Hardik was the top-scorer for India as he remained unbeaten on 39 off 16 deliveries and he made short work of the 128-run target. Hardik showed off his destructive brand of batting as he slammed three consecutive fours off Taskin Ahmed including an impressive no-look shot that he just guided over the wicket-keeper’s head. Hardik did not even give any reaction after the shot and the video has gone viral on social media.
India registered a comfortable seven-wicket win over Bangladesh in the first T20I of the three-match series on Sunday.
India bowled out Bangladesh for 127 and then chased down the target of 128 with 49 balls to spare.
