INDvsSA: India's best probable XI for South Africa T20Is
The Indian squad looks promising as it has the best performers from the IPL.
8. Axar Patel
Slowly and steadily, Axar Patel is becoming Jadeja’s backup for Team India. In-home conditions, he has been so brilliant that the selection committee has decided to pick Axar who is the third spinner in the squad. This time around, it is time to show that he has the fuel to be a good backup option in case Jadeja is unavailable.
Axar has played 122 IPL games and has scored 1135 runs with a decent strike rate of 128.83. In T20Is, he has not gotten many chances to put a mark, but he can be a decent contributor down the order. He has played a few crucial knocks for the Delhi Capitals with his hard-hitting abilities.
With the ball, Axar has an economy rate of 7.25 in the IPL. Talking about T20Is, he has bowled at an economy rate of 6.7 and picked 13 wickets in 15 games. These numbers showcase his mettle and prove that he can be a match-winner for Team India.
