Ganesh questioned the logic behind pushing a tested striker like KL Rahul at n ° 6, in particular with the pressure of a potential collapse against England. The Cricket expert rippled again on Gambir and the captain, Rohit Sharma, asking if they would have made the same decision if India had been in difficulty with only five points on the board of directors.

Dodda Ganesh posted on X during the Nagpur Odi: “Kl Rahul was the best in no. 5, but the wise men of the wardrobe find different ways to demarize it in this range of strikers. Absolutely ridiculous. What are you going to realize by sending Axar to no. 5? “”

However, the move has worked for Axar Patel, which scored 52 points in Nagpur and an undefeated 41 in Cuttack, while taking a counter in the two games. On the other hand, this decision worked against KL Rahul, because the right -handed striker could only manage 12 points in two rounds.
Rahul hit n ° 6 twice before, marking a total of 54 points to an average of 18 in the ODI cricket. Now it will be interesting to see if Rishabh Pant on the occasion in the third and last ODI, after having warmed the bench in the first two ODIs, where the men in blue would continue to demote the Karnataka star in order of a good history.
In particular, Axar, Rishabh and Rahul have all been appointed to the Indian team for the next ICC 2025 champions trophy, so all the eyes will be on the team’s selection strategy.
