Sharmistha Yadav, Bengaluru - Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya has been cleared by the BCCI's Centre of Excellence to participate in the upcoming three-match ODI series against Afghanistan after successfully bowling his full quota of 10 overs during fitness assessments in Bengaluru. The clearance comes as a major boost for India's white-ball plans.
Pandya has been working on his rehabilitation and workload management following concerns over his fitness in recent months. Team management and medical staff closely monitored his progress at the Centre of Excellence, where he underwent a series of physical and bowling tests. His ability to complete a full bowling spell without discomfort is being viewed as a positive sign for India's balance in the ODI format.
With the all-rounder now declared fit, selectors are expected to consider him for upcoming ODI assignments. Pandya's return strengthens India's pace-bowling options while also adding depth to the batting order. Further updates regarding his inclusion in the national squad are expected in the coming days as preparations continue for future international competitions.
