Prasad saying they wanted a &quot;three-dimensional&quot; option who can bat at No. 4, bowl a few overs of medium pace and is also a good fielder.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Meanwhile, former India opener Gautam Gambhir said he feels bad for Rayudu.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;There is Ambati Rayudu who missed out as well. He is averaging 48 in ODIs, why focus only on Pant? I feel it is far more disheartening for someone like Rayudu because Pant has age on his side,&quot; Gambhir told IANS.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rayudu averages 47.05 in his 55-match career, with a strike rate of 79.04.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He has been out of form lately, averaging just 30.87 in his last 10 innings and has scored at a rate of 75.3 with just one fifty.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Just Ordered a new set of 3d glasses to watch the world cup ..<\/p>\r\n&mdash; Ambati Rayudu (@RayuduAmbati) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RayuduAmbati\/status\/1118108435797561344?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 16, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote>\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>",
