But his fitness levels are not looking of the desired standards and add to that his poor hand-eye co-ordination makes him look like a number 11 batsmen.

Though, his road for making a comeback in the Indian team looks quite tough to me especially after his failures on a consistent basis in the recent matches for Delhi Daredevils.
