Hardik Pandya’s Injury Problems Continue to Delay His Return
Hardik Pandya has been away from competitive cricket since IPL 2026 due to injury and fitness concerns. He missed four matches for Mumbai Indians during the tournament because of back spasms and later suffered a quadricep strain during his rehabilitation, further delaying his return to the Indian team.
The all-rounder was also unavailable for the home ODI series against Afghanistan in June and the white-ball series in England in July. His absence has continued to affect India’s plans in the white-ball formats.
Injuries have been a recurring problem for Pandya over the past few years and have also affected his chances of taking over as India’s full-time T20I captain. India had looked towards Nitish Kumar Reddy as another pace-bowling all-rounder, but he has also faced fitness issues.
