Akshar Patel
Axar Patel, who was ruled out due to injury before the start of the 2023 ODI World Cup, has made a brilliant comeback on the field. In the fourth T20 match of the series played against Australia at the Raipur ground, Akshar Patel showed brilliant ball control, scoring just 16 runs in his 4 overs and also picking up 3 important wickets. Akshar was also awarded the Man of the Match award for his performance. Over the last year, Akshar has played an important role for the team with both bat and ball in T20 matches and is therefore seen as an important player ahead of next year’s T20 World Cup. However, the Indian team selectors surprised everyone by not including Akshar in the team for the T20 series to be played in South Africa.
Akshar Patel replied via tweet
After the winning performance in the fourth T20 match, Akshar Patel now published a post on the social media platform Twitter in which he wrote that one should walk peacefully and only speak when checkmating the opponent. Let us tell you that Ravindra Jadeja was included as a spin all-rounder in the Indian team announced for the three-match T20 series against South Africa and this can be seen as the main reason for not including Akshar Patel. Akshar Patel has definitely been included in the team for the ODI series against South Africa. Axar picked up two important wickets at crucial moments in the form of Travis Head and Ben McDermott in the fourth T20 match against Australia. Aside from that, he made Aaron Hardy his third victim in the match.
That would certainly have disappointed everyone
Axar Patel also made a statement about his disappointment over being eliminated from the ODI World Cup during the press conference after the fourth T20 match. He said that this would definitely have disappointed everyone. The World Cup was in India but I was injured. In the first few days I thought about not being able to play due to injury. But the team performed well, so I started training again after the first 5-10 days, but when you miss due to injury and you can’t do anything during that time, you feel bad, but that happened due to injury and Nobody can control it because it is part of the game.
