Hardik Pandya joins Baroda for Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy
India are currently playing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia and aren’t scheduled to play any T20Is for a while. This gives Hardik Pandya enough time to warm up, using Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy as a platform, for Champions Trophy as well as IPL 2025. Baroda will take on Gujarat in the tournament opener on Saturday.
