The best Indian-origin XI currently playing

#2 Swapnil Patil (United Arab Emirates)

Patil is originally from Mumbai

He is an aggressive batsman and was one of the seven players to make their ODI debut against Scotland in the World Cup Qualifiers in February 2014. He came very close to scoring a century in the very first game but missed it by a whisker as he remained not out on 99. Patil is originally from Mumbai and had featured for the state’s under-19s and under-22s.

Then in 2005 he got an offer to move to UAE where he was said he could play plenty of cricket. He grabbed the offer and after a four-year qualification period he made his first class debut.Though he is predominately a middle order batsman, he can be lethal at the top-order too. He was a regular in the side for UAE during the 50-over World Cup in 2015.
