Irfan Pathan got furious
Irfan Pathan looked unhappy with Hardik Pandya’s decision to change the bowling while fielding for Mumbai Indians. He tweeted, “At least it can be said that Hardik Pandya’s captaincy has been very ordinary. It is beyond my understanding to keep Bumrah away from bowling for a long time when the opposing team is attacking.

Then he got angry on batting

Mumbai Indians batsmen, who came to chase the target of 278 runs set by Hyderabad, also made a strong counterattack. However, if someone proved to be the weak link in batting, it was captain Hardik Pandya. Hardik Pandya could score 24 runs in 20 balls with the help of one four and one six. He returned to the pavilion after being caught by wicketkeeper Klaasen off the ball of Jaydev Unadkat.
