Off The Field

Hardik Pandya scary to hang out with, says KL Rahul

During the talk show ‘What the Duck 3’ in which he appeared along with India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, KL Rahul made a candid revelation that Team India’s allrounder Hardik Pandya is ‘scary’ company to hang out with.

“It is scary to hang out with Hardik Pandya. There was a time before a match, me, him and Dinesh Karthik headed out to clear our minds. The next day, he spilled everything to Virat (Kohli),” Rahul revealed.

“I became scared and asked him why would he go ratting up to the captain! He does not know what to say when. He has no filter,” Rahul added, according to a media release.

Few weeks ago, India captain Virat Kohli too has highlighted how Pandya looked ‘lost’ and would not ‘think before’ speaking, in a talk show.

“Pandya is one of the entertaining members in the team. But, I haven’t seen anyone as lost as Pandya in my life,” Kohli said while appearing on the show ‘Breakfast with Champions’.

Kohli added, “Pandya doesn’t think before speaking. Once he wanted to take Ash’s (Ashwin) name but he ended up saying – ‘Ravikashyap Ashwin kya bowling karta hai yar’. He is very good at heart but he doesn’t have any control over his tongue.”
