World Cup 2019: Hardik Pandya can do what Lance Klusener did in 1999, believes Steve Waugh

Former Australia captain Steve Waugh believes that Hardik Pandya will dominate the ongoing World Cup the way South African Lance Klusener did in the 1999 edition as he feels the Indian all-rounder’s clean-hitting is something that no opposing skipper can deal with.

During India’s match against Australia at The Oval on Sunday, Pandya stroked his way to a 27-ball 48 helping India post an imposing 352/ 5. India then bowled Australia out for 316 for a 36-run win.

“…it’s the innings of Hardik Pandya that will send shivers down opposition spines. This guy might just be the equivalent of Lance Klusener in the 1999 World Cup.
