Madhya Pradesh batsman Rajat Patidar is all geared up for his maiden overseas tour with Team India—the three-match ODI series—in Bangladesh next month.
MP chased Odisha’s 172 in the 32nd over to win their Vijay Hazare Trophy encounter by six wickets at the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday. Patidar, 29, who scored 62 in the first game against Jammu & Kashmir on Saturday, got out for one—caught by wicketkeeper Rajesh Dhuper off pacer Rajesh Mohanty (2-35). When asked about the possibility of him getting an India cap under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy in the ODI series starting on December 4 at Mirpur, Patidar told mid-day: “Every cricketer dreams of representing India. I want to cash in on this opportunity. If I get a chance to play, I will give my 100 per cent and play according to the situation and conditions. I have not set any targets for this tour.”
