After starting their calendar yr with a T20I sequence win, the Hardik Pandya-led facet has been receiving numerous reward from the followers and former cricketers. However, former India skipper Ajay Jadeja has a bit of recommendation for the Indian facet that they need to embody extra all-rounders of their enjoying XI within the limited-overs format.

Jadeja highlighted that former India skipper Mahendra Singh was a “champion” when it comes to choosing his enjoying XI as he had many choices in relation to all-rounders.

“If I have five bowlers and I am playing, you know exactly, either I will bowl X, Y, or Z. So, you can plan as an opposition, but if I have seven-eight bowlers who could bowl at different stages. How does the opposition plan against you? So, you run the game. Mahendra Singh Dhoni was a champion at it,” said Jadeja on Cricbuzz.

“There’ll be days that Ravindra [Jadeja] didn’t bowl a single ball. Say, if you put in all four [Hardik Pandya, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja], you can play all four. What’s wrong with that? Because they can all bat well enough,” he added.

The former batter additional acknowledged, “It’s just a wild thought. You can even add another all-rounder, say, bowler all-rounder, Ashwin kind of a person as well. The problem is that you still keep the top five-six batsmen, then add these guys as all-rounders and the bowling is a little weaker.”
