After registering a historic Test win against Bangladesh in the recently concluded Test series, the focus has now shifted to the T20I series starting on October 6 at the Gwalior International Stadium in Madhya Pradesh. 

The players are sweating hard in the nets as the BCCI recently uploaded a video of new-looking India's pace attack practising in the nets. Mayank Yadav, Harshit Rana, and Arshdeep Singh were seen practising with Morne Morkel, while Hardik Pandya too pushed his limits in the nets. 

Morne Morkel Unhappy With Hardik Pandya

Talking about Pandya, he rolled his arms in the practice session but according to a report from the Hindustan Times, Morkel was unhappy with Pandya. 

The report states that Morkel was also ‘unhappy’ with Hardik's  bowling  as he was going closer to the stumps and constantly gave advice to MI skipper. Morkel also had issues with Pandya's release point and gave valuable tips to the right-arm seamer, which Pandya understood and was supportive of the feedback.

Hardik Pandya Eyes To Break Bhuvneshwar Kumar's Record

Pandya boasts a great record in T20Is as he has impressive record of 86 wickets from 102 matches. He needs just five wickets in the upcoming series to surpass Bhuvneshwar Kumar's record of 90 wickets.

This would make him India's most successful pacer in T20Is. The current holder of the most wickets for India in T20Is is Yuzvendra Chahal with a total dismissal of 96 batters in 80 matches. Here is the list of the most wickets for India in T20I wicket.
