Hardik Pandya will be back in action for the upcoming T20I home series against South Africa starting from September 15. Pandya was rested from the recently concluded West Indies tour and where India had a successful outing as they whitewashed the Caribbeans in all the formats (3-0 in T20Is, 2-0 in ODI's and 3-0 in Tests). Team India not only retained the top spot in Tests but also started their ICC World Test Championship on a high as they registered comprehensive wins by margins of 318 and 257 runs respectively. India are now at the summit of the World Test Championship table with 120 points. It seems that Hardik Pandya is fit and raring to go after a much-deserved break as he was seen sweating it out in the nets.
