        <description><![CDATA[After making a comeback as Mumbai Indians (MI) captain, Hardik Pandya has been going through a tough time.

During the Champions League with Team India, Pandya was an integral part of the team; he did his job well and made the trophy sure for his team without doing anything such as heroics. ]]></description>

From trolling to performance issues, the all-rounder spent a tumultuous period on and off the field. During the Champions League with Team India, Pandya was an integral part of the team; he did his job well and made the trophy sure for his team without doing anything such as heroics.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Read More</strong>: <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/is-kl-rahul-finally-delivering-in-ipl-2025/">Is KL Rahul finally delivering in IPL 2025?</a></p><p>As a team, the Mumbai Indians are far away from their prime days. The 5-time IPL-winning side is currently in 8th place in the ten-team points table. They managed to win only one after playing 5. A team's performance can depend on multiple factors, especially since cricket is a team game. MI is yet to perform as a unit in the ongoing <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/ipl-2025/">IPL 2025</a>. In this article, we'll break down the performance stats of Hardik Pandya so far in the tournament.&nbsp;</p><p>Over the last few months, Hardik has improved his bowling a lot. With the old ball, the Mumbai skipper became a very useful asset for the team. When the team needed to put a barricade in front of the opponent team's run flow, the MI captain marked his presence. So far in 4 matches (missed the first match due to suspension), Pandya has bagged 10 wickets with a fair amount of economy rate. His best bowling figure in the campaign was against Lucknow Super Giants, when he claimed 5 scalps, spending only 36 runs.&nbsp;</p><p>With the bat, the 31-year-old all-rounder has played a couple of notable innings, one against Royal Challengers Bengaluru with 42 runs and another 28* innings came when Mumbai Indians faced Lucknow Super Giants.&nbsp;</p><p>A few months back, Hardik was mainly known as a fearless batter who could bowl some impactful overs and, as a batter, could play stormy innings to snatch victory from opposition teams grips. Now, he looks more composed than before, focused on his target.</p><h3>Hardik Pandya's Performance in IPL 2025&nbsp;</h3><table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 41.2373%;" border="1"><colgroup><col style="width: 33.4435%;"><col style="width: 33.0939%;"><col style="width: 33.327%;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th>Match</th><th>Bat</th><th>Bowl</th></tr><tr><td>MI vs RCB</td><td>42</td><td>2/45</td></tr><tr><td>MI vs LSG</td><td>28*</td><td>5/36</td></tr><tr><td>MI vs KKR</td><td>--</td><td>1/10</td></tr><tr><td>MI vs GT</td><td>11</td><td>2/29</td></tr></tbody></table><p>&nbsp;</p>]]></content:encoded>
