DTVHINDIIND vs ENG: Will Devdutt Padikkal get a chance in Dharamsala Test? Former cricketer gave a big statement
Team India’s batsman Rajat Patidar’s performance has been very poor in the ongoing Test series against England. He has played three matches in this series so far and has not been able to do anything special in even a single match. In such a situation, many people believe that Devdutt will be in the playing XI in place of Rajat Patidar for the last test match. Padikkal Should get a chance. Meanwhile, former Team India cricketer Akash Chopra has given his opinion on this matter. Hosting JioCinema’s sports show ‘#AAKASHVANI’, JioCinema and Sports18 expert, Aakash Chopra talks about the fifth India-England Test match starting in Dharamshala on Thursday. He told whether Devdutt Padikkal will get a chance to debut? On the importance of the 5th India-England Test: Due to the format of the World Test Championship (WTC) cycle, every match is important. Although India has won the series, still 20% points can be collected from this five-Test series. If India finish with three wins, they will secure 60% of the total points, while if they can win the match in Dharamsala, they will get 80% of the points. Therefore this match is important from India’s point of view. what devdutt Padikkal Will he get a chance in the fifth test match? From the thoughts we have received, it seems that Rajat Patidar will get to play one more match. I wouldn’t be surprised if he plays. This is because India has won the series and there is still one more match left. What is in Padikkal’s favor is that since he is in the team, he will get a chance at some point. But the question is, will he play only one Test? There is a lot of time for the next Test match to be held in September-October. On India’s probable playing eleven: There is always a discussion in Dharamshala whether India should play three fast bowlers. But I would still like to go with two fast bowlers and three spinners. We may get to see Jasprit Bumrah playing in place of Akash Deep. Then three spinners who played in the last match. Akshar (Patel) may not get a chance. I think the Indian team will look like this.

IND vs ENG: “Rajat Patidar should get another chance” – statement of former veteran cricketer
Chopra believes that it would not be right to select Padikkal as it would be challenging for the team management to select him in the future matches on the basis of one match. He suggested giving Patidar another chance in the team to assess his potential. However, many people believe that Padikkal may get a chance in the last match. Aakash Chopra said in a video released on his YouTube channel, “Reports suggest that Rajat Patidar will play and I can probably understand. The team is saying that they have played him three matches, so he can play one more match and this could be his last chance.” The former opener further added, “If they don’t play him and play Devdutt, and if he has a bad match, they won’t even be able to judge him, and they may also feel that they have given Rajat the silver.” Not given full chance. I wouldn’t be surprised if Rajat Patidar plays. “However, I still wouldn’t be surprised if he is removed.” Emphasizing the importance of each match, Chopra has said that due to the World Test Championship (WTC) now no match is unimportant in Test cricket. He expressed his view that both the teams will be motivated to increase their points in the WTC points table.
