A Patel is slowly but steadily building up a good reputation. He was tidy with the ball in last IPL. Thats not much praise but in T20 being Tidy is enough, not too many can claim to have that said about them. That he can come in towards the end and hit a few is a definite add on fot T20. Next IPL for him would be huge. I am not saying put him in the Test side of anything, but he is definitely someone to watch out for. Ashwin followed a similar route, and went from being a good IPL bowler to playing Test Cricket.
Long way to go for Patel still, but definitely promise, atleast for limited overs cricket. Next IPL for him is big.
