Wasim Jaffer feels Axar Patel is a perfect replacement for Ravindra Jadeja

Indian cricket team all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has been ruled out of the ongoing season of Asia Cup 2022. Not only this but Jadeja has also been ruled out of the upcoming T20 World Cup. The star all-rounder of India (Ravindra Jadeja) sustained a knee injury in the ongoing Asia Cup. Due to which, he won’t be able to play in any of the big tournaments this year.

Ravindra Jadeja had a good fielding performance last time when India played in Asia Cup. The game was against Hong Kong which was the second game of the Asia Cup for India. After this news, BCCI announced his replacement very quickly. Axar Patel was named as the replacement of injured Ravindra Jadeja for this remainder of the Asia Cup 2022.

Former Indian cricketer Wasim Jaffer feels that Ravindra Jadeja’s absence will be a bad thing for India in the upcoming T20 World Cup. He also feels Jadeja has a well experience. But all-rounder Axar Patel who has been named in the squad for the remainder of Asia Cup is perfect for India. Wasim Jaffer feels confident of Axar Patel.

“But saying that, India is very very lucky to have a like-for-like replacement in Axar Patel. The way he batted in West Indies, and the way he played some crucial knocks. India won’t miss the batting of Ravindra Jadeja,, said Wasim Jaffer as reported by India Today.
