    'It Makes No Sense': Finch Slams Axar's Bowling Call Against SRH

    By IANS News April 22, 2026 • 12:12 PM View: 177
    Axar Patel: Former Australian captain Aaron Finch has criticised Axar Patel for bowling just two overs while allowing part-time Nitish Rana to complete his full quota during Delhi Capitals' (DC) clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).

    With several left-handers in SRH's top order, Delhi opted to use Rana’s off-spin. However, despite conceding 55 runs in his four overs, only his 27th bowling outing in IPL history, the move raised eyebrows. Meanwhile, frontline spinners Axar and Kuldeep Yadav bowled just two overs each.

    Finch was openly critical of the decision, saying, "We’ve been sitting there scratching our heads, haven’t we? Your two Indian premier spin bowlers, Axar Patel, the skipper, and Kuldeep Yadav, bowled four overs between them. A part-time offspinner in Nitish Rana has wheeled out four overs. To me, that makes no sense," he told ESPNcricinfo.
