Amitabh Bachchan, the Bollywood Super Star enjoys mammoth Fan following. Millions go mad at the mere mention of his name. Young Indian cricketer Hadik Pandya who is making a name for himself with batting and bowling performances has been compared to Big B.
Yes, former Indian cricketer and commentator Sanjay Manjrekar after being bowled by Hardik's knock out 93 against South Africa in the first innings and also his two wickets each in both innings made him brand Hardik as Amitabh Bachchan of Indian cricket.
Manjrekar posted, 'Like Amitabh Bachchan used to play those double roles, Hardik Pandya also showed two characters in his superb innings. The modern T20 player along with the orthodox classical Test batsman.'
However many trolled him for comparing Hardik to icon like Amitabh Bachchan.
