Axar Patel

Another aspect of his game that Axar has improved is attacking the wide yorkers designed to prevent him from slogging through midwicket.

“He does not get too many chances with the bat but his intent is pretty good, and his confidence has been high since he hit Jadeja for those sixes,” said Amre. “He is basically a sharp, smart cricketer who has an understanding of the game situation. But I keep talking to Ricky and I have worked on staying in the moment, about seeing the ball and hitting the ball. Axar had to make sure he was to the pitch of the ball, and adjust quickly if he couldn’t get there in time. But at the higher levels, his career has played out in the shadow of his fellow all-rounder. It took a while, but Axar has made it a part of his set-up now. “His release stroke would be through midwicket but bowlers would bowl wide yorkers to him. “When you see you have to get so many runs and only so many balls are left, you can start thinking that I should loft the ball there, or that I can hit the sweep. It is only in the last couple of years or so that his batting has begun to garner some attention. The left-hander has always had the basics of both defence and attack in place, having been nicknamed ‘Jayasuriya’ in hometown Nadiad in Gujarat for his big hitting in junior days. “When he came to DC, he was perhaps a bit happy-go-lucky. In IPL 2022, he came in at 104 for 6 in a chase of 178 and took DC home against Mumbai Indians with an unbeaten 38 off 17 balls at Brabourne Stadium. “We worked on getting the front foot to come down in the direction of mid-on or at least straight, thus freeing up the hitting zone,” said Kaif.
