TIL Desk Sports/ India all-rounder Hardik Pandya on Sunday said that he is happy to bat anywhere and sees it as an opportunity to do something nice for the team.
“Happy to bat anywhere they want me to. Rather seeing it as challenge, I see it as opportunity to do something nice for team,” he said while addressing the media after winning the third ODI against Australia here.
Pandya’s all round performance helped India on Sunday to win the third one-day international against visitors Australia. India defeated Australia by five wickets to capture the five-match series with 3-0 lead.
Chasing Australian total of 293 runs, India scored the winning runs with 13 balls remaining and five wickets in hand. Three 70-run-innings by Indian batsmen wasted Australian opener Aaron Finch’s century. Three seventies were scored by Hardik Panday, Ajinkya Rahane, and Rohit Sharma.
