Hardik spoke at length about his partnership with Pant and what he told the left-handed batter during their 133-run stand.

“I was just saying the same thing over and over: it was critical that we not take any risks. We can score runs with the kind of talent Rishabh and I have without taking any risks. It was all about not losing any wickets; there was only one way for England to recover, and that was if we lost wickets in a row. I was doing the same thing over and over again in order to form a partnership and bring the match to a close “Hardik stated.

“I told Rishabh that you should finish the game first and then relax. He got a little stuck when he came in, but he eventually started playing his shots. And everyone knows that once Rishabh begins to play his shots, you just sit back and let him do his thing “He continued.

Pandya earlier taken four wickets as England were bowled out for 259 in 50 overs.

Pant and Pandya will next be seen in action in a five-match T20I series against the West Indies, which begins on July 29.
