Big change coming in India’s T20I squad? RCB star’s name creates buzz

Cricket

Experts are questioning India’s batting balance and think the team may need a new approach for different match situations.

India’s T20I squad has many left-handers, and some feel adding a strong right-hander could bring better balance.

The missing piece?

RCB’s Rajat Patidar is now being discussed as a solution, with his aggressive batting and strong play against spin making him an exciting option.

Patidar’s fearless shots, steady performance under pressure, and impactful innings have boosted talk of his India return.

Pathan wrote on X that with so many left-handers in India’s T20 team, Rajat Patidar deserves a chance, especially since there’s still time to experiment before the next T20 World Cup.

The management may need to choose between sticking with the current lineup or adding a right-hander for more flexibility.

As talks about India’s batting balance go on, everyone will be watching to see if Patidar gets another chance to prove himself.
