1. Kuldeep Yadav in for Axar Patel
Axar Patel has been an integral part of the Indian team across formats. He has strangled batters with his impeccable lines and lengths and provided the Men in Blue with timely wickets. Further, the 29-year-old has played crucial knocks slotting in lower down the order.
However, Axar has had mixed outings as an all-rounder in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023 so far. Though he has been magnificent with the bat and notched up 185 runs in three outings, the Gujarat-born has been quite mediocre with the ball and bagged just one wicket in the Test series.
Axar’s inability to take wickets and that too in spin-friendly conditions has added pressure on Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja to provide India with breakthroughs. So, the team management could ponder over replacing the southpaw with Kuldeep Yadav in the coming game.
Kuldeep’s addition will provide variety to the spin department and will make the bowling unit more rounded. Thus, the ace spinner featuring in the coming game appears to be on the cards.
