South Africa vs India 2018: 5 reasons why Parthiv Patel deserves his place in the squad

England And India Nets Session

Experience

Parthiv Patel of India

Having been thrown in the choppy waters of International cricket at a very young age, he has fallen and learnt to stand up by himself.

After he was dropped from the national side, he went back to first-class cricket and did the bulk of scoring for his side.

At 32 years of age, he has captained Gujarat for a decade now. He has scored more than 10,000 runs in first-class cricket at a healthy average close to 45. His vast experience belies his baby-faced appearance.
