He pointed out that Kohli was a consistent run-scorer prior to the coronavirus pandemic. Jadeja stated that now that everything is slowly getting back to normal, the one thing that’s left is to see the right-handed batter score big runs once again.
The cricketer-turned-commentator made these remarks during a discussion on Cricbuzz ahead of India’s crucial tie against Pakistan in the ongoing Asia Cup 2022. The contest is set to be played at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday (August 28).
He said:
Notably, Virat Kohli took a short break post India’s tour of England last month. He was rested for the white-ball matches against West Indies and Zimbabwe. The seasoned campaigner is set to make his return in the Asia Cup 2022.
“The problem here is that he has done well at the top of the order” - Ajay Jadeja on Hardik Pandya’s batting
Ajay Jadeja also spoke about how Hardik Pandya has showcased tremendous batting form lately. However, he emphasized that the player has enjoyed great success while batting in the top order.
Jadeja suggested that the talismanic all-rounder will have to move down the order during the Asia Cup. He opined that Pandya has been more effective at the No.3 and No.4 spots.
He added:
Pandya will be a vital cog for the Men in Blue in their clash against Pakistan. The 28-year-old has made a significant impact with both bat and ball in his recent outings in international cricket.
