Class and swag are qualities that go hand in hand, and a few players elevate it with style. The same was replicated by Hardik Pandya in the final T20I against Bangladesh at Hyderabad, where he repeated his signature no-look shot off Taskin Ahmed which was sent smoothly to the boundary rope.

‌India capitalized on the record-breaking 173-run partnership between Sanju Samson and Suryakumar Yadav, reaching 190/1 in just 13 overs. The Kerala batter was in exceptional form, blasting a stunning century off 40 balls. The Indian skipper also showcased his prowess, contributing a rapid half-century as they relentlessly attacked the Bangladesh bowlers. Following the quick departures of both batters, Hardik Pandya and Riyan Parag were tasked with maintaining the momentum. Toward the end of India’s innings, Pandya executed his signature no-look shot, sending the ball racing for a boundary.

On the final ball of the 19th over, Taskin Ahmed bowled a fuller delivery around the off stump. The Mumbai Indians captain aimed to swing it across the line but mistimed the shot, resulting in a top edge as he didn’t even glance at where the ball was going. The ball sped toward the third man fielder, but due to the quick outfield, it ultimately crossed the boundary line. Impressed by Pandya’s flair, the Twitterverse erupted with discussions about his no-look shot.

 What a shot!!
