Rajat Patidar has proved that his batting brilliance is not limited to limited-overs cricket. In the ongoing Duleep Trophy, he smashed 125 runs off just 96 balls, with 21 fours and 3 sixes, leaving everyone amazed by his stroke play.
Patidar’s Innings Felt Like T20
His approach to batting did not resemble a test match. Instead, it looked like one of his power-packed knocks for RCB in a T20 game, where he dominated bowlers with fearless shot-making and aggressive intent.
Knocking on BCCI’s Doors
This remarkable innings has strengthened his case for a spot in the Indian test team. Patidar’s consistency and adaptability are clear reminders to the BCCI selectors that he deserves an opportunity in red-ball cricket.
Waiting for His Breakthrough
Although Patidar has long been regarded as a complete batter, he has not yet cemented a place in India’s test setup. His latest knock, however, could finally tilt the scales in his favour for a much-awaited selection.
A Chance to Represent India
Fans now hope that Patidar’s performance will translate into a national call-up. For a young cricketer with immense talent, wearing the Indian jersey in test cricket would be the recognition he has always worked towards.
