Cricket Comeback on Horizon
Hardik Pandya is currently recovering from an injury, and fans are eagerly anticipating his return to Team India. Observers are curious to see whether his spiritual practices will positively influence his performance on the field.
The veteran all-rounder has been recovering from a quadriceps injury he sustained during Asia Cup in September 2025, which forced him to miss the Cricket World Cup. He is expected to regain match fitness by featuring in domestic cricket, starting with the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, ahead of his anticipated comeback for India’s white-ball series against South Africa.
