Ruturaj Gaikwad warmed the bench for Team India for the last 3 series despite red-hot form in IPL 2021 & the domestic circuit. The absence of R Pant & V Kohli finally paved the way for him in the third & final T20I at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
After making a modest debut against Sri Lanka in the T20 series, Ruturaj Gaikwad burst into form, taking the IPL 2021 Orange Cap and top-scorer crown in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. However, despite calling him up for the T20 series against New Zealand and West Indies, he was overlooked over Ishan Kishan.
- After scoring just 21 and 14 in two T20Is against Sri Lanka, he was largely overlooked.
- Luckily, Ruturaj made a strong comeback in the 2nd phase of the IPL and finished as the Orange Cap holder with 635 runs in 16 matches at an average of 45.35.
- In the Vijay Hazare Trophy, he smashed 603 runs at a staggering average of 150.75 including four centuries in five matches.
