“ No one talks about him ” Aakash Chopra surprised by the Snob T20i of Rishabh Pant despite the horror IPL 2025
Rishabh Pant had a forgetable IPL, saved by a last century of match for Lucknow super-managers.
The former opener of India, Aakash Chopra, is surprised by the continuous omission of Rishabh Pant of the T20i plans of India. The left -handed was not in consideration for the Asian 2025 Cup with Sanju Samson and Jiteh Sharma chosen as conservation options. Pant was part of the T20 World Cup team in India 2024, but has since presented only in Test Cricket.
Very surprised that nobody talks about him: Aakash Chopra on Snub T20i of Rishabh Pant
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra thinks that Rishabh Pant can always be a vital cog in T20i plans in India. The chief selector Ajit Agarkar opted against the left -hander for the Asia 2025 Cup team, in part to his injury. Pant played a T20i for the last time against Sri Lanka in 2024. Since then, he has lost his place with Sanju Samson by taking the place. The impressive IPL of Jitesh Sharma catapulted him into the Asian Cup team, while Dhruv Jurel was appointed among the reserves.
“When Rishabh Pant beats at n ° 1 to 3, he marked his races at a typing rate of 156 and has an average of 34, which is good. However, we will not talk about the first three. When you look at the numbers 4 to 7, it has a typing rate of 140 and an average of 30. Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel.
‘IPL is not good one of the reasons “
The chances of pants in the first order are thin to nothing. India is already boasting of Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal as opening options. However, a lower order role could be examined with the average order of undefined India. Hhelik Pandya is a certainty, but Shivam Dube and Rinku Singh themselves have intermediate seasons 2025. For the disadvantage of pant, he himself had a forgetable IPL after being the most expensive signature in the history of the tournament.
“The only thing that goes in its favor, and I am very surprised that no one is talking about it is that it was the third higher run-scree of India in the T20 World Cup. It seems that a fly has been removed from milk and thrown away. Chopra added.
Pant played 76 T20is for India, marking 1209 points at an average of 23.25. Its strike rate of 127.26 is well below its usual standards. The 27 -year -old is certainly a choice of Factor X, but with Shreyas Iyer who is struggling to make the team, the chances of Rishabh seem to be thin.
