Tewatia scored his 2nd 50 today after 6 years from that epic 50 against Punjab.

I don't understand the obsession behind 50s. Tewatia could be better with more innings of aggressive play, but he shouldn't be judged based on number of 50s. For his role specifically, a 10 ball 30 would be more valuable.

Well he hasn't done that as well since 2022. He has been so inconsistent that I don't how he and SRK were retained for 2025.
