5 reasons why Axar Patel doesn't belong in the 'big league'

#5 Picked on IPL exploits

He has featured for teams like Kings XI Punjab and Mumbai Indians in the IPL

It was Axar Patel’s exploits in the cash-rich Indian Premier League which helped him get into the Indian side. But the IPL cannot be the only tournament to judge the potential of a player.

He has been quite handy in the tourney bowling on turning tracks during the dry months of April, May but in the Ranji and the Duleep trophies he has struggled.

In domestic T20s which includes the IPL, he has scored 615 runs at an average of 18.63. While bowling, he has picked up 69 wickets which include a best of 4/21.
