Hardik has been battling a back injury since mid-2019. He underwent surgery in October 2019 but has been unable to regain his full fitness since then. His lack of fitness had affected his performances at the international level and he was seen struggling to meet his quota of overs in bowling. Hardik’s inclusion in the T20 World Cup despite his lack of fitness was criticized by many experts.
In the six ODIs played for India in 2021, Hardik could only manage 119 runs at an average of 23.80. In bowling, the stats look as unimpressive as he took just two wickets in a year. In the shortest format of the game, Hardik played 11 matches in 201 and scored 165 runs at an average of 27.5.
After being dropped from the team, Hardik underwent an extensive rehabilitation program in Mumbai last month. He was seen working hard to regain fitness.
The Baroda-born cricketer is also using this time off from national duties to spend some quality time with his family. Sharing glimpses of his personal life, the all-rounder often posts pictures and videos with his wife Natasa Stankovic and son Agastya.
Hopefully he’ll be back on the field soon!
