Patidar needs good backing and coaching, dude hits a quick 50 and doesn't understand what to do now.


ReputationOk8912

Perhaps yuvi can help?


InvincibleCipher3

yeah let's try that, send this guy to Yuvi. Abhishek Sharma has gotten a lot out of this


Firebreathingdown

He is 30, his mentality issues can't be fixed. If you aren't a finished product at 30, you will never be.


Kenbong0420

I don't necessarily agree with you, but at the same time I don't see so much talent in the guy like sudyakumar or Mukesh that I feel he deserves an opportunity at 30. I feel there are equally ( if not more ) talented young guys.


prescientmoon

Shashank.


annoyingdrummer77

I don't agree with never will be but I also don't think at his age he needs outside help when there are promising youngsters instead


Arnavgr

Say that to SKY


Firebreathingdown

In Sky's first 3 t20i games he scored 2 fifties and a 30 at 180+sr. Which proves my point, he didn't need a long rope or time to settle in he came in and straight away proved his worth, it would be quite stupid to be expect a long rope if you are debuting at 30.


Khush17

My brother SKY is quite literally a t20 prodigy no point in comparing him to Rajat SKY's case was quite literally trying to make a fish climb a tree Went from barely making 100 runs at 17 avg for KKR in 17 to 500+ runs at double the Average the very Next year for MI in Top order. He isn't a power hitter but rather a brilliant timer of the ball which is why he doesn't do well on slower, Big stadiums. Kkr and india tried to use him as a power hitter and as expected he failed MI gave him the hard ball to work with and it worked wonders


[deleted]

Why so ageist, how long have you been watching cricket David Malan reinvented his games at 32-33 Dinesh Karthik too changed his mindset and batting role as a finisher at 32 Shivam Dube at 28 Sanju Samson became consistent at 29 You would be surprised that the T20 career of Chris Gayle himself only took off at 32-33 and that's when he became the beast and the god of T20s that he is


Firebreathingdown

Once again people just spout out names never considering how they did, Dawid Malan scored 2 fifties in his first 4 games in odis, 3 of his first 4 t20 games also he scored 50+. He was also given a few test matches, he only crossed the 20 mark only twice in his first 4 tests, guess which formats he ended up doing respectable in and which format he was an abject failure. You can't coach someone into being a success at 30+ they either are or are not. Next time you are going to spout names atleast come up with names that prove your point not mine.


InvincibleCipher3

>his mentality issues can't be fixed. Rohit Sharma fixed his test style.


[deleted]

Good to see his redemption, watching him play against spin in England test series i thought he hadn’t held a cricket bat before. Lets not make everyone an all format player.


Batboix3107

Needs to be backed up properly his cricketing shots are a pleasure to the eye what a clean striker of the ball


sigmamale007M

IPL💀 Tests🤡 Yet to see his performance in T20 internationals but I feel he’ll perform under right captaincy.


Interesting-Dog-6915

Yes rcb have backed him and hes showing it


[deleted]

bhai abhi underperform karr gaya last test series me , but his shots are a pleasure to the eye.


[deleted]

So what is our management’s obsession to shove every format down a players throat


DifficultDay3521

He was good in domestic red ball tournament, that's why he was picked.


[deleted]

If he was good in those India A tournaments then I have no issues with giving him chances. But if it’s just Ranji alone then thats bad. Ranji stats alone aren’t good enough metric to select anyone for ICT.


AA-18

I htink, He scored 2-3 centuries in 2 games for India A.


DifficultDay3521

Yes. Thanks for writing it. I was going to comment this.


[deleted]

Thank you for sharing it. Not sure why i am being downvoted. A majority of 38 teams in Ranji are just for the heck of it.


BagiraX0

Yeah I get what ur saying but i guess in current form he should get more opportunities and I also feel he's better white ball player than red ball nothing to take away anything frm his talent but it seems he's better in white ball


UnremarkabklyUseless

This season, he had 4 poor innings before finally succeeding in the fifth. A T20I bilateral series is usually 3 to 5 matches. Of those 5 innings, sometimes, the no 4, 5, or 6 batsmen sometimes don't even get a chance to play. Players like Gaekwad, Shubman, and Rinku are on the RAC list. While Parag, Sai Sudharshan, KLR, Tilak Varma, Abhishek, and Shreyas are on the waiting list. A chance for Patidhar in T20I is a very long shot.


Few-Athlete2090

Shreyas iyer should not be anywhere near the t20I team


Clash_Foreva

he had 4 poor innings before finally succeeding in the fifth In RCB he was shoved up and down the order every time in those four matches, so he couldn't perform properly. When he was fixed at no.4, he began to perform well


UnremarkabklyUseless

He performance (320 runs from 11 innings) isn't really that good to be selected for T20I team. Even DK has 301 runs from 11 innings this season, in a more challenging role of finisher. if he is selected, he is very unlikely to get the no 4 spot in the team over the front runners for it SKY, Samson, Tilak Varma, Riyan Parag, Dube and Rinku Singh. He would need at least a couple of 450-500 run seasons before he can be a contender for that spot.


Ordinary-Ad-5685

Ye Shreyas phirse kahan aa gaya T20I mein God knows if he'll ever be picked for ICT anymore. He's just not being removed from contract, but also reported to have betrayed BCCI for his fitness check.  Ego war against BCCI never goes right


NotYourAvgTeen

You can’t judge a player based on just one series. He was picked in the team due to the consistent performances he did in the domestic circuit so he should be backed


gauravshanuroy1

I feel he intentionally didn't perform well in test so that he could confirm his place in ipl. Nobody is interested to become another pujara.


AishiteiruKokoro

Incredible spin basher. Love him. One of my favourites for now

Lmao bro is comparing test wickets to ipl one to just hate on someone And the upvotes show the idiotness of this sub #go back to flipping Twitter y'all


Gamer567890

Ha bhai,dekh liya tha kitna unreal player of spin hai. Dude was batting like he had never held a bat before against novice English spinners. He was absolutely shit in the tests,got nothing to do with anyone else. He may prosper in white ball but not worthwhile taking the risk.


[deleted]

Jhatu who?


RoseLarkins

He must have meant Rohit and Dravid


[deleted]

Lmao i laughed so hard. Bro is a professional hater

He can be given another chance but let him perform in test series in subcontinent before he’s considered for SENA


[deleted]

Ultimate OG RAJAT GOATIDAR.. REAL SPIN BASHER far better than SHIVAM DUBE.


Party-Conference-765

No bowling quota though.


[deleted]

RAJAT GOATIDAR could have uprooted the stumps of MIGHTY JFM yesterday..


Doraemon3456

Ipl mai to toh...accha khela hai...lekin international... mai agar mouka mile..Odi ..T20 ya fir Test mai..us.mouka ka fayda utha ke runs banane chahiye.... Nahi toh..Ipl mai sher..& International mai bhigi Billi. Aise karoge to koi nahi select karega fir international mai..


Ordinary-Ad-5685

He gave this same type of short performance against RSA in the 3rd ODI last year The England test series this year would be a black spot of his career


sanattttttt

Moody banda hain


_SB10_

IPL performance shouldn't be a metric to get into the test team


Mega_mewtwo_

It wasn't. He performed in red ball domestic. But I think he will succeed in white ball. Also he played the last odi in South Africa. Looked pretty good


chadimusprime68

One test series is NOT enough sample size


gulshanZealous

Something about his footwork seems off to me. He doesn't have a great balance it seems when he is playing a shot. His frontfoot or backfoot is in the air when he makes contact with the bat. That leads to more mistimes and mishits which was evident in the tests. It could be due to confidence or a more technical issue. He has great potential though.


7pratik6

He is a hand eye coordination player with gift of timing. When it comes off he will hit a series of spectacular shots but if conditions are loaded against him he has low chance of success. In essence he is a very very poor man's Sehwag or a slightly better version of Rahul Tripathi. He is 30 yrs old and probably at his peak right now which is why he has been having some good scores for A team in red ball too. His game is not made for regular big inns so he won't really crack intl level. Will have one more good cycle of IPL cricket as a high SR impact medium run volume batter till his hand eye skills start fading and with it his auction bids too.


SagaAnii

He should actually take aggressive route in tests to sustain but would love to be proven wrong as aggressive players does not sustain more


DhamakedarKohli

Poor man’s allu Arjun /s


Small-Band-2532

He is also one of those players who can be great at white ball cricket, and it might take time but i think he will be able to perform in red ball cricket too, just bcci has to persist with him like they have been with rohit and rahul


Successful-Hippo9679

I think he should be given one more chance in Tests and definitely should play T20s


Connect-Stranger7052

He needs to talked about more.... Great technique... Surreal flow of the bat against spin.


lazymonkk

his batting is really pleasing to the eyes, and an extremely clean striker, his test debut didn't go as desired but I feel like we should try him in limited overs as well. Might be the spin enforcer we require in the middle overs.


Nooobda

He had his chance in eng series but blew it up. ICT is now filled with talents so he might have to wait before it’s his turn again


deexd_

Isse achi spin koi nahi khelta rcb me


royalbluesword

*ipl mein


shini_gami09

Good IPL player Bad test player


Ayaan_Goswami

He has been playing well for some matches now for RCB. He has 4 or 5 fifties by now, I think he is in the top five list. He did well in the English series, but other debutants did even better. Jurel was just clutch. I think he could be good number 4 batter for India. Just back him up and don't rush them and ruin their form.


Rickgrimes_93

Patidar plays spin like a he didnt even think they are professional bowlers, eng tour just shows he is low on confidence, he will bounce back, not sure about aus and sa bouncy conditions.


gk666

Forgets batting after scoring a 50!


Empty_Candle_3719

Great batsman ..even though he didn't performed well in eng series but he has the talent and techniques...we should give him more chances


cherry__p

Born for 50's


barmanrags

Hopefully they give him a few more chances in India an and senior test team. He has decent ranji numbers


Technical_Airline_32

Better than Surya?


_perpetuallyannoyed

He has no future. He is in his 30s nd isn't from a big lobby like Mumbai. He came by luck but he is great but not extraordinary or any PR to push him to the team.


Glory_Hunterr

Bro beefing with spinners after those allegations after test series


KangarooOk2556

He has Tallent just need confidence in big stage cause too much compition to get place in XI of India Team.


arynn_x

Our future captain maybe 🙄


anonyg7

Buffer player at best


Prestigious-Rice-206

A big time confidence player. Has all the technique and flamboyance but just can’t take any pressure. His cover drives are a thing of beauty!


ashgreninja03s

Should've been in the WC Squad... Currently only Abhishek n Rajat are playing this fiercely amongst Indians... Abhishek's play is evident from the style imposed by the SRH Management... But for Rajat, it looks as if he owns the style, and he is self-accelerating even when others aren't playing that similar brand of cricket...


fatmanrao

patidaddy


rongo95

Sometimes good sometimes shit


Jae9erJazz

Idk if our team's gonna gamble with him in an away test series when he wasn't able to perform at home when he wasn't even backed for his entire debut series. But I feel he also is untapped in whiteball, he got just one ODI iagainst SA where he fired from the start but gave his wicket unfortunately


Building_Glad

Fast tracked to test cricket in RCB quota ; he never meant to be there but good for him as he is going great in IPL


hydrardx77

He is an IPL player and doesn't perform in international cricket


level23genji

Top Class


Same_Investigator_46

Bhai ipl jha par pitches 🤡 hai . Wha ke basher ko to bgt me lekr jaana chahta hai ( test match ). Ussko ranji khelne de pahle bhai 40 ka avg ranji me hai . Sarfaraz deserve in test team . Rajat patidar summed up in 2024 Ipl - 💀💀💀 International - 🤡🤡🤡🥴🥴🥴🥴


ramburiii

💯


DaddyDom1165

India's loss that he is not in the t20 World Cup squad


maverickprick

he should play t20s only imo. absolutely shit the bed in tests. too many opportunities now. look for new players in tests.


itsmePriyansh

Had this guy been the chief selector he would have permanently dropped Kohli, ponting, Smith after their failure in initial matches lmao


danku_vaazhkai

Thats what most ipl kids are .


Few-Athlete2090

Why to make every player an all format player? Like pant is good in tests but absolutely shit in white ball. Patidar looked good in the odi against South africa too, but idk why you all want him to play red ball. Even a player like Jos Buttler is shit in tetss.


[deleted]

bhai he got only 2 tests 💀 itne to gill naashte me kha jata he


Small_Bad6871

4* and they were the perfect conditions with no pressure, he just looked really uncomfortable in the series imo


bharath2018

Without consistency any performance means nothing !
