Axar handled the Indian innings by scoring 47 runs in 31 balls. However, even after batting like this, he has not been able to ensure his batting position in the top order of Team India.

Akshar Patel gave a big statement Let us tell you that after India’s first T20 match against Sri Lanka, Akshar Patel said as quoted by Cricbuzz- When you play cricket consistently for India and when you perform well under pressure, you get confidence. And every time you get confidence, you always learn from it. It’s not that you will always perform well in pressure situations, you may also fail. But those situations teach you that I can do things differently and it has taught me a lot especially in the last year. On the other hand, if we tell you about this T20 series, then the Indian team has taken a 1-0 lead by winning the first match of the T20 series. So now the second T20 match between the two teams will be played today on 28th July in Pallekele.
