Pandya brothers extend birthday wishes to Kieron Pollard

A complaint has been filed against Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya at the Shivaji Nagar police station in Bengaluru over alleged disrespect to the national flag during celebrations following India's T20 World Cup victory at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Samson had a redemption story to remember, as he went from not being a part of the playing eleven in the start and having a frustratingly inconsistent form, he went on to play three of the most important innings of his career when it mattered the most, producing gems right from the virtual quarterfinal to the title clash against New Zealand. Tharoor also wished Samson for a new beginning in the Indian Premier League (IPL) with five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK), a franchise he was traded to after years of association with Rajasthan Royals.

India made history by defending their T20 World Cup title, defeating New Zealand by a whopping 96 runs in Ahmedabad on Sunday.

India star all-rounder Hardik Pandya reflected on his journey from facing difficulties in life to lifting back-to-back T20 World Cup trophies.
