Delhi: With only a few months left for the T20 World Cup 2022 to begin, Team India is busy making its best 15 players squad. In the corridors of cricket too, there is a lot of discussion about the Indian World Cup team. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer and current commentator Sanjay Manjrekar has given a big statement about Ravindra Jadeja. Manjrekar says it is difficult for Jadeja to make it to the upcoming T20 World Cup squad to be held in Australia, with players like Dinesh Karthik and Axar Patel ahead of him.

Speaking to Firstpost, he said, "Clearly, Dinesh Karthik has shown that he can bat at number 6 or 7. The impact he is making is phenomenal and we have seen his performance in T20Is against South Africa and in IPL as well. So it will not be easy for Jadeja to come into the team and take his place. India can settle with someone like Axar Patel."

He further said, “Now in the team Hardik Pandya, Karthik are batting down the order. There is also Rishabh Pant so it will not be easy for him. But knowing what kind of player Jadeja is, he will ensure that the headache for the selectors doesn't subside."

The IPL 2022 season was also disappointing for Ravindra Jadeja. This season he was given the responsibility of captaincy, but when the effect of captaincy started affecting his game, he decided to leave this post in the middle of the season itself. After this he was ruled out of the entire season due to injury. He is returning for the England tour.
