Axar Patel by virtue of being the only left-handed batter in the XI will get a game. Moreover, whenever the wicket has a bit of assistance from the spinner, he is a handy option. It wouldn't be wrong to term him the first-choice spinner in this team because of his batting ability. Although he was expensive against Pakistan, he was back to his wicket-taking form against the Netherlands. R Ashwin too will retain his place, especially after the match against Netherlands where scalped a couple of wickets. No second thoughts about Hardik Pandya's place in the team. If he is fit, he must be in the XI for this crucial game.
