4th Test: Sudharsan Making Maiden Test Fifty Means India Wants To Back A Youngster At Number Three, Says Patel
Indian Premier League: In the ongoing crucial fourth Test against England at Old Trafford, young left-handed batter B. Sai Sudharsan stepped up with a composed 61 - his maiden half-century in Test cricket- on the opening day of the fourth Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series in Manchester.
After making zero and 30 in his debut Test at Headingley, Sudharsan was drafted into the playing eleven at Old Trafford in place of Karun Nair, who managed just 131 runs in the first three matches.
Former India wicketkeeper-batter Parthiv Patel, who worked closely with Sudharsan during his time as the assistant coach of Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, feels the Indian team is making a conscious shift toward backing Sudharsan at number three, a move he feels is justified.
