Hardik Pandya has left the Mumbai Indians. The all-rounder, a two-time T20 World Cup winner, has ended his second stint with the franchise in a direct swap with Punjab Kings’ Arshdeep Singh. His exit followed a difficult three years as captain, in which he appeared to lose favour with teammates and the franchise’s demanding fanbase.

He assesses what Pandya brings to Punjab, what the trade means for both franchises, and where the all-rounder’s international career stands.
