Aakash Chopra- “It’s a message to the selectors” in IND vs NZ 2021

Despite the presence of a multitude of talented openers, Aakash Chopra believes Team India’s decision to bat Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul at the top of the order is a message to the selectors.

Five openers are included in India’s 16-man T20I squad against New Zealand: Rahul, Ishan Kishan, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Venkatesh Iyer. For the first T20I, Kishan and Gaikwad were left on the bench, while Iyer was named to the playing XI as a batting all-rounder at No. 6.

“The Indian team was starting a new era and they said that Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul will remain their two openers, we are not going to change. It’s a message to the selectors as well that we cannot play if you pick 5-7 openers because we want to move forward with these two openers.” He said

Suryakumar Yadav

“Suryakumar Yadav at three. Here also they didn’t play Ishan Kishan at three, they kept the opener in his place. Surya came and shone. He said that you can cover the sun’s light for some time with the clouds but can’t stop forever.”  Aakash Chopra elaborated

Suryakumar Yadav’s bold attitude, according to Aakash Chopra, is required in the game’s shortest format.

“The best thing I like is that he is a risk-taker. The boundary shots he plays, they are all risky but not taking risks in T20s is the biggest risk. You have to keep investing in him if you have to make a new template for T20s.”

The well-known analyst continued by pointing out that Team India barely escaped with a victory.
