Devdutt Padikkal will have to wait for his Test debut, says MSK Prasad
The Board of Control for Cricket in India's former chief selector MSK Prasad feels that young top-order batsman Devdutt Padikkal is an interesting prospect for the future and that "there is still some time for him to enter into the Test setup". "Padikkal would need another good year in the domestic circuit to make his case strong for entering the Indian Test unit," felt Prasad. Incidentally, Padikkal, who plays for Karnataka in domestic tournaments, is the second-highest run-getter in a single edition of the Vijay Hazare Trophy, having amassed 737 runs in seven innings in the 2020-21 season, with the highest being 152. On the inclusion of Prasidh Krishna as a backup in India's squad for the World Test Championship final clash against New Zealand and the following five-match Test series against England, Prasad said: "You have India A bowlers, all these Prasidh Krishna and Ishan Porel have gone through India A cricket.
