That's why I always have good luck in my life. There is peace looking back at the moments. I know I will have good days and bad days, but the positivity comes from the hard work I put in, which gives me the self-confidence and confidence to give everything."

Since his return, Hardik Pandya is India's second-highest run-scorer in T20Is.
