Aakash Chopra on India XI vs England
In a video on his YouTube channel, Mr. Chopra pointed out the selection dilemma India have for the 2nd Test.
“India have a slight selection dilemma. You want to give debuts to both Rajat Patidar and Sarfaraz Khan. You also want to play both Washington Sundar and Kuldeep Yadav. If you want to do all of that, you will have to play 12 and not 11. A theory could be not to play five bowlers.”
Chopra also opined to include three spinners other than the only pacer, Jusprit Bumrah.
“You can say that you are happy with four bowlers and that you will play three spinners and one fast bowler in the form of Bumrah. Then my three spinners would be Kuldeep, Axar Patel, and Ravichandran Ashwin. So I have a left-arm spinner, an off-spinner, and a left-arm leg spinner.”
“If that is India’s playing XI, then you can play Yashasvi (Jaiswal), Rohit (Sharma), (Shubman) Gill, Patidar, (Shreyas) Iyer, and Sarfaraz Khan as the top six and you can keep Bharat at No. 7, and then you have got four bowlers.”
