padikkal can play in all formats
RCB opener Devdutt Padikkal has the ability to play for India in all formats of the game, said former India captain Sunil Gavaskar. “I won't be surprised if he plays for India in any of the formats because he has got the class and the ability to do that. He is a heavy scorer in first-class cricket and Ranji Trophy as well gets big hundreds. In 50-overs cricket, he gets lots of runs and hundreds. Here, in the T20 domestic tournaments, he got lots of runs. So, I won't be surprised if he is there sooner rather than later,” Gavaskar said on Star Sports.
