Also, seems like tweeple have forgiven Hardik Pandya for the Shami episode. The Gujarat Titans skipper had enraged Twitter after his video of yelling and shouting at Mohammed Shami had went viral. But today cricket fans applauded Pandya for his knock. Hardik made his second half century last night and became the highest scorer of this season of Indian Premier League. The orange cap now belongs to Hardik, earlier the orange cap was donned by Rajasthan Royals opener Joss Butler.

Moreover, another video of captain Hardik Pandya is going viral now. People declared it the compensation for the ill will that Hardik Pandya had garnered. Last night in an incident that happened against Rajasthan Royals in the last over, Pandya made a heart-winning gesture. Hardik had mishit Prasidh Krishna for a four. It was a good ball and was not meant to go there, but in-form Pandya hit it for a four. As bowler Prasidh Krishna gave Pandya a frustrating look, the GT skipper was quick to console him verbally with a smile.
