Axar Patel, according to former cricketer Suresh Raina, has secured his spot in the Indian squad for the forthcoming T20 World Cup, which is scheduled to start on June 1.
The all-round player has shown his value in Ravindra Jadeja’s absence. He took two crucial wickets in the opening Twenty20 International match against Afghanistan in Mohali, Rahmat Shah and Rahmanullah Gurbaz, and Raina then recalled his recent contributions to the national squad.
When discussing Axar Patel strengths, Suresh Raina brought up the cricket player’s ability to change pace, which has a big impact on the game’s shortest format. He did clarify that things could get tough once Jadeja returns. He went on to say that the next Indian Premier League (IPL) will be important and that he expects Axar Patel to perform well because of his current level of confidence.
“Axar Patel engages in powerplay bowling. Every time he has batted, he has performed well. Since Pragyan is a left-arm spinner, he is better able to predict his trajectory. The manner in which he dismissed Rahmanullah Gurbaz, the velocity at which he moves. While speaking with JioCinema, Raina stated, “I feel like his ticket is confirmed.”
“We need to find out how much they are considering Jadeja. Given that there are five Test matches against England, he has undoubtedly been rested. Jadeja has a significant effect. It will largely depend on how well you do in the IPL, your rhythm, and your level of confidence,” the 37-year-old continued.
Axar has exceptional game-reading skills. Pragyan Ojha
Former cricket player Pragyan Ojha has expressed admiration for Axar Patel performance. The 37-year-old said that he always has perfect game awareness and exceptional game-reading skills.
“You should hold onto him. A bowler or all-rounder’s exceptional game-reading ability and constant game awareness are indicated when they are in and out of the team and perform when given the opportunity, according to Ojha.
