From Mumbai to Adelaide, viral Big Bash League star Jerssis Wadia received a special message from India all-rounder Hardik Pandya after his breakout performance. The 24-year-old Adelaide Strikers all-rounder exploded onto the scene with a rapid-fire 34 off just 16 balls against the Brisbane Heat. Pretty soon after, he found a message waiting for him—from none other than Hardik Pandya, India’s T20 captain. After his big BBL innings—especially those three sixes in a row off Jack Wildermuth—Wadia’s phone lit up with Pandya’s message. With support from a superstar like Hardik Pandya and the confidence from his explosive debut, he’s off to a strong start in the Southern Hemisphere.
