    Will Hardik Pandya lead Team India in Future? Will Hardik Pandya lead Team India in Future?

    England's attacking players Jos Buttler (80 not out off 49 balls) and Alex Hales (86 not out off 47 balls) made a chase of 169 looks like a walk in the semifinal of the Men's T20 World Cup 2022 and took their team to the final with a convincing 10-wicket win over India.

    After the match, the former Indian captain said he expects changes in the line-up and added that Hardik Pandya would take over the Indian team after the World Cup.

    "Having won the Indian Premier League on his first assignment as the captain, they would have marked Hardik Pandya out as the next captain. Hardik Pandya will definitely take over the team in the future and there will be some retirements, you never know."

    "Players will be giving it a lot of thought. There are several players in their mid-30s who will be reconsidering their position in the Indian T20I team," Sunil Gavaskar said on Star Sports.

    "I just think India seem to freeze in these knockout games... particularly with the batting and it is the batting which has been the strength of the Indian team," he said.

    "In the semifinals, the batting has not been as good as it should be. Obviously, at this stage, you are going to get much better bowling attacks than maybe the group stages and that's understandable. But the batting really hasn't got the runs that the bowlers can defend," he added.
