Hardik Pandya’s India record: 2,288 T20I runs, 114 wickets and a rare all-round career

Hardik Pandya’s career record across three formats

Hardik Pandya has built one of India’s most notable modern all-round careers, contributing as a right-handed batter and right-arm medium-fast bowler in T20Is, ODIs and Tests. Born on October 11, 1993, Pandya has represented India, ICC World XI, India A, Mumbai Indians, Baroda and Gujarat Titans.

Impact in T20 internationals

Pandya’s strongest statistical profile comes in T20Is. In 138 matches, he has scored 2,288 runs from 1,568 balls, including nine half-centuries, 168 fours and 126 sixes. His highest score is 71, made against Australia on September 20, 2022.

With the ball, Pandya has taken 114 wickets in 125 innings at an average of 27.13 and an economy rate of 8.34. His best T20I figures are 4/16 against New Zealand, recorded on February 1, 2023. He has also taken 64 catches and contributed six run-outs in the format.

Reliable one-day contributions

In 94 ODIs, Pandya has accumulated 1,904 runs, with 11 half-centuries and a top score of 92 against Australia on December 2, 2020. He has struck 141 fours and 76 sixes in the format.

His ODI bowling record includes 91 wickets from 88 innings, an average of 35.51 and an economy rate of 5.60. His best figures are 4/24 against England on July 17, 2022. Pandya has also taken 35 ODI catches and been involved in five run-outs.

Test career produced a century and five-wicket haul

Pandya played 11 Tests and scored 532 runs, including one century and four fifties. His highest Test score was 108 against Sri Lanka on August 12, 2017.

As a Test bowler, he claimed 17 wickets in 19 innings at an average of 31.06. His best figures, 5/28, came against England on August 18, 2018, giving him the only five-wicket haul listed in his international record. He also made seven Test catches and two run-outs.

Debut and career snapshot

Pandya made his T20I debut for India against Australia at Adelaide Oval on January 26, 2016. His ODI debut followed against New Zealand at Dharamshala on October 16, 2016, before he entered Test cricket against Sri Lanka in Galle on July 26, 2017.

The figures underline Pandya’s central value: he combines aggressive lower-order batting, useful seam bowling and athletic fielding across formats. The record also shows his greatest statistical influence has come in limited-overs cricket, where his batting power and wicket-taking ability have made him a prominent all-round option for India.
