Rayudu picks the most under-used cricketer
During an interaction on the Beer Biceps YouTube channel, Rayudu recently shared his perspective on the under-utilization of a talented cricketer in the current Indian team and named his former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) teammate, Ruturaj Gaikwad as the player not being fully harnessed according 🎐to his poten♎tial.
“For me, (someone) who is being underused by Indian cricket right now is Ruturaj. He has tremendous talent, and I think he is the one guy who should be used more,” expressed Rayudu.
Interestingly, just days after Rayudu’s discussion aired on YouTube, Gaikwad astounded the cricketing world with a remarkable performance by smashing a phenomenal fifty and a century against Australia in the second and third T20I matches. The milestone not only showcased his skill and prowess but also marked a historic moment as he became the first I💟ndian batter to score a century against the Aus🐬sies in the shortest format of the game.
