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.

I met him once at a President’s meeting, Sir Geoffrey Boycott was in that meeting. I remember at that time he told Bairstow that you are playing well in the other team.

However, despite having uncapped Devdutt Padikkal in their team, India may reportedly give Rajat Patidar another chance for the fifth Test against England in Dharamsala. A BCCI source was quoted by the Indian Express as saying,“The team wants Patidar to get another chance because they feel Patidar has the talent and it is only a matter of time before he scores runs.

BCCI had recently announced that KL Rahul has not yet fully recovered from his quadriceps injury and will not be able to play the last Test of the series. Due to Rahul’s absence, Patidars have been getting more opportunities and the same can be seen in Dharamshala.
