3 Indian Players Who Could Become Better Option Than Ravindra Jadeja In India’s T20 World Cup Squad
1. Axar Patel
Axar Patel is the first player on this list. Patel is also a spin all-rounder like Ravindra Jadeja. He was also picked to replace Jadeja midway during Asia Cup 2022. However, the left-arm spinner only played 1 match in which he remained wicketless and did not get a chance to bat.
In the previous series against West Indies and Zimbabwe, Axar Patel gave an impressive performance. He also played a match-winning knock in an ODI against West Indies. Hence, he might be a good option to replace Ravindra Jadeja in the T20 World Cup squad.
2. Deepak Hooda
Deepak Hooda is another player on this list. Hooda is also a spin all-rounder. After making his T20I debut this year, the right-handed batsman has played many T20I games for the team and also executed brilliant performances. For instance, his century against Ireland in T20I game showed a glimpse of his strength with the bat.
During the Asia Cup 2022, Hooda bowled in just 1 game in which he also picked 1 wicket in his only over. Moreover, Hooda is also a lower-order batter like Ravindra Jadeja. Hence, he will be a good option to replace Jadeja in the tournament.
3. Ravichandran Ashwin
Ravichandran Ashwin is another player on this list. Like Ravindra Jadeja, Ashwin is also a spin all-rounder. In the recent Asia Cup 2022, the right-arm spinner played 2 games. He scored unbeaten 15 runs in one game off 7 balls.
He also picked 2 wickets at an average of 29.50 and an economy of 7.37. Ashwin will also be a good option to replace Jadeja in T20 World Cup as he can also contribute with both bat and ball. In addition, Ashwin is a stronger spinner than Jadeja.
