Team India led by Hardik Pandya succumbed to a 3-2 series defeat against the West Indies cricket team in the five-match T20I series. West Indies won the first two games before Team India made a stellar rebound to win the next two games of the series.

Needless to say, West Indies ensured to turn up the heat in the final T20I battle, which saw them beat Team India by 8 wickets at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill, Florida. West Indies clinched the T20I series against India, which is also their first bilateral series win over India since 2016.

After the T20I series defeat, skipper Hardik Pandya came under fire for his captaincy. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer, Parthiv Patel reckons that there is still some room for improvement in Hardik Pandya's captaincy. The former wicketkeeper-batsman added that Hardik Pandya will have to score some runs in the build-up to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023.

Parthiv Patel talks about Hardik Pandya's captaincy

While speaking to Cricbuzz, Parthiv Patel said, "Against Nicholas Pooran, he (Hardik Pandya) gave that over to Axar Patel and not bowling Yuzvendra Chahal. Bowling changes and the utilisation of the bowlers are something that tells me that Hardik, the captain for India, is still a work in progress."

"And there is obviously a little concern about his batting. He needs runs. He didn't get runs in the IPL, he didn't get runs in the last couple of series as well. India would want to get some runs for Hardik Pandya in the Asia Cup or the series against Australia before the World Cup," he added.

This is Hardik Pandya's first-ever bilateral series defeat as captain. He failed to add enough runs to his belt as he could aggregate only 77 runs across four innings at a strike rate of 110, which is low considering a player of his calibre.

India will fly to Ireland to play three T20Is. The first of the three-match T20I series will go all guns blazing on August 18, Friday at The Village, Dublin. After a T20I series defeat at the hands of the West Indies, Indians will be looking forward to winning the T20I series against the Ireland cricket team.
