Kahi ayesa na ho paji showgiri ki chakkar main.
Cricket se bohot door rahe jaao.
But I like your Attitude

Pandya revealed in an interview with CNN News 18 on why he was rested for the India vs Sri Lanka series.

To be honest, I asked for it. My body wasn’t up for it, I have some niggles because of the amount of cricket that I have played. I want to play cricket when I am totally up for it, when I can give my 100 per cent. I am lucky that I have got this break. I will train in the gym during this break and improve my fitness. I won’t lie, I am really excited for the South Africa series. I would like to use this break to improve my fitness for the series. I have played 30 ODIs, 25 T20s and 3 Tests in last one year. If they are saying I have played less cricket then I want to tell them ‘I am sorry.’ As an all-rounder it’s even more difficult.
