When Hardik entered the arena wearing India's training uniforms, he was also wearing the earring on his left ear.
Social media users expressed admiration for Hardik Pandya's new appearance ahead of the big game. Like the rest of his team, Hardik had a full beard up to the semifinals.

A few supporters likened Hardik Pandya's appearance to that of Shreyas Iyer. Throughout the IPL 2024 season, the skipper of the Kolkata Knight Riders maintained a same appearance.
One of them even made the comparison to Kapil Dev's appearance from the World Cup final in 1983.
During the T20 World Cup, Hardik Pandya has been one of India's most important players.
Pandya contributed significantly with the ball during the United States leg of the competition (in the group stage), but he also made significant runs during the Super 8 stage.
With his 13-ball 23 and two sixes, Hardik helped the team reach 171 in the semi-final matchup with England.
Hardik Pandya will be crucial to India's chances in the final, considering the previous performances in big-ticket matches in the past. India won the toss and opted to bat against the Proteas on Saturday.
