Hardik Pandya and the Mumbai Indians (MI) are orchestrating what could potentially be one of the most remarkable comebacks in IPL history. MI has a history of bouncing back from dire situations and securing spots in the playoffs, and Hardik Pandya is undoubtedly eager to replicate that feat once again under his leadership.

Hardik has been hitting the gym hard, focusing on improving his fitness for two main objectives: Taking the Mumbai Indians into the playoffs and securing his spot in India's squad for the T20 World Cup. 

Recent reports suggest that both chief selector Agarkar and Indian captain Rohit Sharma are keen on Hardik bowling more in the IPL. 

Hardik Pandya's bowling has faced scrutiny lately. In the recent Clasico match against the Chennai Super Kings, MS Dhoni dealt harshly with Hardik Pandya in the last over, where Hardik's bowling has been criticized.  

Also, there have been rumors circulating about Pandya not being completely fit. It's now imperative for him to demonstrate his fitness and form to secure selection in the national team.


Watch: Hardik Pandya sweating hard at gym

Hardik Pandya is putting in immense effort at the gym, giving his all. He's seen lifting a bar weighing 140 kgs as part of his calf workout regimen. 

After that, he's intensively focusing on various other exercises to further enhance his fitness.

Mumbai Indians have played 6 matches, winning only against RCB and DC,  both teams currently positioned at the bottom of the table. Only a substantial turnaround can give Mumbai  a playoff berth.
