New Delhi: Social media celebrated the birthday of India’s dynamic all-rounder and current captain of Mumbai Indians Hardik Pandya. The Indian all-rounder celebrated his 31st birthday today. Indian National Cricket Team star all-rounder Hardik Pandya was born on 11 October 1993.

Hailing from the town of Surat, Hardik started his career under the guidance of Himanshu Pandya. Realising the potential of his son, his father relocated the family to Baroda for better cricketing opportunities. Hardik and his brother Krunal were both admitted into the academy of former Indian wicketkeeper Kiran More. Pandya showed immense dedication towards cricket from a young age often arriving first at the academy and training for hours.

However, the real turning point in Pandya’s cricket career came when his childhood coach, Sanath Kumar, recognized his potential as a fast bowler. During a training session designed for lower-order batsmen, a shortage of tired fast bowlers led Coach Kumar to call upon Hardik. During this session, Pandya astonished everyone by clicking at 130 kmph.

The combination of his pace and control left a lasting impression, prompting Kumar to shift his training focus toward fast bowling. This pivotal moment marked the beginning of his transformation into a prominent fast bowler, a journey that now inspires many young cricketers.
