Debate Intensifies Over Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel's Roles in India's ODI Team

Ravindra Jadeja's position in India's ODI team is under scrutiny due to recent underwhelming performances, including just one wicket in his last five matches and limited batting impact. Former cricketer Mohammad Kaif and others suggest Axar Patel offers more value in white-ball cricket with better batting and bowling contributions. While Jadeja remains a key Test player, selectors face pressure balancing experience and emerging talent like Axar Patel and Harsh Dubey ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
