Loosing Ravindra Jadeja a massive blow for India, but Virat Kohli returning to form a big plus, said Mahela Jayawardene

Ravindra Jadeja’s absence due to injury is a “massive loss” but Virat Kohli‘s return to form and Jasprit Bumrah’s comeback would still make India favorites in the upcoming T20 World Cup, feels Sri Lanka legend Mahela Jayawardene.
Ravindra Jadeja was ruled out of the T20 World Cup in Australia in October-November after the all-rounder suffered an injury during the Asia Cup.
“It is a challenge. They had fitted him (Jadeja) nicely in that No. 5 role. He has been batting really well; and him and Hardik (Pandya) being in that top six — two guys who can give that all-round options — gave India much more flexibility in that batting order,” Jayawardene was quoted as saying in The ICC Review.
“It is a tough one for them, and probably a concern not having that left-hander. They’ve switched to leaving out DK (Dinesh Karthik) and bringing in Rishabh (Pant) in that role, batting at 5 or 4. Those are things they have to settle going into the World Cup.
“But not having Jadeja, the form that he was in… it will be a massive loss for them,” the batting legend said of Jadeja.
“He (Kohli) was there and thereabouts pretty much. He just didn’t have that big score under his belt to get that confidence, especially in white-ball cricket. That is always going to happen,” said Jayawardene, who has been IPL side Mumbai Indians’ head coach.
“There were a few injury concerns in the last 12 months. He had little niggles and they rested him and India kept on giving people rest. With the workload that they had. So not having that consistent run also makes it tough.
“It’s good to see him (Kohli) batting like that. We need all these brilliant players to be at their best form in a World Cup. And that’s what the World Cup deserves as well. Everyone going at each other at that level. It will be a fascinating World Cup in Australia.
“For me, the way they (India) played, the skills, the talent, everything is there. They just need a little bit of confidence with the bat, with the ball and in the field. These are little things that India will want to improve. It’s just the confidence of bowlers being able to get wickets and then executing skills,” Jayawardene added.
Jayawardene said comeback of ace pacer Bumrah will strengthen team India
“Obviously, not having Jasprit (in the Asia Cup) was also a factor. He fills a big gap for them with the new ball and at the back end. That will settle them as well when he is back in Australia.”
