Hardik Pandya who is a dangerous batter himself was literally taken aback by the sheer pacer of the SRH pacer, Umran Malik. The uncapped Indian bowler already made a name for himself in the ongoing season with fierce pace. He bowled a fierce bouncer to GT captain Hardik Pandya at 140 kmph. The all-rounder got hit on the helmet. Fortunately, he escaped from an injury. The video clip of the same has gone viral on social media.
