Not only once but twice he escaped easiest possible of dismissals during his huge innings of 93. When he was only 14 one slip fielders South Africa let loose an easiest lolipop catch offered by Pandya. And thereafter, again when he was around 50 steeped down the spinner to lift the ball for six, but missed the line and ball and South African wicket keeper failed to convert an easiest chance of stumping when Hardik was standing down on the wicket. Alas, the wicket keeper could not gather the ball bowled by spinner and missed the stumping chance. Then Hardik had nothing to loose and went on hitting every ball as merry go round and scored mighty 93 runs, which is now precious to Indian team though, it was a fluke. It is very difficult to survive two easiest dismissal chances in international cricket. But Hardik had the lady luck.
