The all-round brilliance of Ajay Mandal has been a pillar of strength for Chhattisgarh in domestic cricket for quite some time now. Some terrific all-round performances in the recently concluded domestic season, including Ranji Trophy and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, highlight the player’s ability to come clutch when needed.
In T20 cricket, Mandal bats at a strike-rate just over 130 and also picks wickets regularly with the ball. His slow left-arms can cause the batters troubles, while his big-hitting strength will always be vital.
