Hardik Pandya is lucky to be viewed as an allrounder, says Roger Binny

Pandya, who has been compared with India's all-time great all-rounder Kapil Dev in past, failed miserably on the South African soil.
Hailing his bold decisions, Kallicharran said Kohli has introduced a new brand of captaincy in India.
The cricket legend believes these U-19 boys are going to be the future stars of Indian cricket and will take the legacy forward.
Pandya, 24, is often considered as India's best all-rounder since the days of the legendary Dev who guided India to its first ever World Cup in 1983.
The 'Haryana Hurricane' slammed Pandya's careless batting approach in the second Test against South Africa in Centurion.
Pandya starred with the bat in the Champions Trophy final last year, and in the first innings of the opening Test against South Africa last week.
One of the greatest captains Team India has seen, the cricket fraternity and many others wish Kapil Dev as he turns 59 today.
Actor Ranveer Singh, who will be playing Kapil Dev’s character in 83, has already begun preparations for his role.
The World Cup winner emphasised on the fact that the player's fitness has helped them achieve consistent victories as the Men in Blue travel to South Africa in January.
Praising the current Indian team, Kapil Dev, who led the Indian team to victory in 1983 World Cup, said the national sides have been doing a great job in the last 10-15 years.
The captain of the 1983 World Cup winning team said Dhoni is in a good form, but it's ultimately the selectors who have to take a call on his future in the shortest format of the game.
Since joining the BCCI in 1979, Dalmiya played a major role in helping it to emerge as the wealthiest cricket board in the world.
A few former India cricketers, including Ajit Agarkar, recently raised questions about MS Dhoni's T20 future, creating quite a storm in the country's cricketing circles.
The two iconic cricketers bowled and batted against each other, toiling in the oppressive heat through the day all for a commercial shoot.
The film follows how, under the captaincy of then newbie Kapil Dev, the Indian cricket team defeated West Indies.
The BCCI has stuck to its stand of not removing the life ban imposed on the Kerala pacer.
Kapil believes that Bumrah will stick around long enough for India and praised Kohli's ideology about following a rigid fitness pattern.
The Australian great has no doubt Pandya would strengthen India in Tests and contribute to their success in all conditions.
Kapil Dev was apprehensive considering that Viv Richards was literally toying with Madan Lal's bowling. But rest as they say was history.
Directed by Kabir Khan, the film is based on India’s victory at the 1983.
