Pandya played a crucial role in helping India secure their second T20 World Cup title at the Kensington Oval in Barbados. He entered the tournament in poor form following a disappointing IPL season as the captain of the Mumbai Indians but delivered a match-winning performance in the final game.
His most memorable performance came during the T20 World Cup final against South Africa. With India under immense pressure, Hardik bowled two game-changing overs (17th and 20th). The right-arm pacer defended 16 runs to secure India’s long-awaited ICC title. He broke down into tears after the victory.

I think it was just a relief. Really proud of the way I was able to stand, and maybe not show a lot of emotions or how I have been going through," Hardik said in an interview with the ICC.
