According to BCCI sources, Hardik is likely to be fit for the T20 series against South Africa in Durban from December 10, PTI reported.
According to Inside Sports, “It will take some time for Hardik to be declared fit. And available for selection and it would be more practical for him to undergo rehabilitation. And then try for a possible comeback in the South Africa series. This will definitely be the decision of the NCA Sports Science team.
It is believed that in Pandya’s absence, either T20 team vice-captain Suryakumar Yadav or Asian Games gold medal-winning Indian team captain Rituraj Gaikwad may get the command of India in the T20 series against Australia.
Although Suryakumar is currently playing in the ODI World Cup. There is a possibility of him playing in the T20 series. It is almost certain that senior players Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and the pace unit will be rested in the T20 series against Australia to keep them fresh for the Test series against South Africa.

It is almost a fixed rule that India’s white-ball specialist players (especially batsmen) can play around 25-30 matches of ODI and T20 apart from IPL in a year if fitness allows it. Therefore, if Surya himself does not ask for rest, then he is the favorite contender to captain India in the T20 series against Australia. But in case he does not play, the second-best choice will be Ruturaj Gaikwad.
T20 World Cup 2024 is to be held in America (US, and West Indies) in June-July next year after IPL and the team for the T20 series against Australia will be selected from the teams played in Ireland and Asian Games.
