Indian cricket all-rounder Hardik Pandya revealed that he is looking forward to playing the role of a finisher during the T20 World Cup, which will be held in October-November in Australia this year but when asked about possible comparisons with MS Dhoni, he expressed his admiration for the veteran wicket-keeper and said that he will ‘never be able to fill MS’ shoes’. Hardik, who is on an injury break due to a back surgery, is expected to be back to competitive cricket later this month with the India A team in New Zealand. Hardik last played for India in a T20I against South Africa in September last year.

“I’ll never be able to fill MS’ shoes, so I don’t even think that way. I’m quite excited about the challenge to be honest. Whatever I do, it will be always for the team you know. It will be one step at the ladder and slowly-slowly that Cup will be there!” Pandya told India Today.
