Aakash Chopra: The Pakistan team has had a very poor performance in the T20 World Cup 2024. Due to which the team has to be out of the group stage. However, the team still has to play its last match with Ireland. But even after winning this match, the Pakistan team will have to return home.
Due to Pakistan team not reaching the Super 8, questions are being raised on the batting of captain Babar Azam and senior player Mohammad Rizwan. At the same time, former Team India player Aakash Chopra has also joined this episode. But he has defended Babar and Rizwan.
Aakash Chopra defended
Former Team India player and current commentator Aakash Chopra gave a befitting reply to the critics of Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan of the Pakistan team and while talking on the YouTube channel, he said that,
“If you have made players who play like this the captain and an important player (Rizwan). So it is not their fault. They play like this and you have not lost because of them. Even if you have lost, the truth is that these players have been playing like this for the last eight years, not just today.”
Choose the team correctly
Aakash Chopra also targeted PCB in a way and said, "You should have built a team around them. If you are unable to do so. Then please do not blame them. Build the team properly. Which you are unable to do. The truth is that if you look at the batting order, you do not see explosive ability. Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan provide some stability but where are the others."
