Mitchell Starc & Aakash Chopra (Photo Source: Ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction, Delhi Capitals had retained Axar Patel (16.50 crore), Kuldeep Yadav (13.25 crore), Tristan Stubbs (10 crore), and Abhishek Porel (4 crore). The franchise had entered the auction with a purse of Rs 73 crore and bought great players like KL Rahul, Mitchell Starc, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Harry Brook, Ashutosh Sharma, T Natarajan and Mohit Sharma. The bowling unit of Delhi Capitals is looking great for the upcoming season of IPL, regarding which cricket commentator Akash Chopra has given a big statement. He said that the bowling attack of Gujarat and Mumbai is excellent. But Delhi has the best bowling attack in the death overs. Aakash Chopra said this about the fast bowling of Delhi Capitals Delhi Capitals has bowlers like T Natarajan and Mukesh Kumar, who have the power to turn the game in the last overs. Aakash Chopra praised Natarajan’s consistency, saying that his figures were among the best among Indian bowlers. On the other hand, Mukesh has become a death-bowling specialist for Delhi. At the same time, the team also has Starc and Mohit Sharma. While talking on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said, No one has had a better bowler than him for more than 15 to 20 years. If you look at T Natarajan’s numbers and compare them with all the other Indian players, you will find that he is very, very good, and last year was also good. Mukesh Kumar’s stature has increased a lot. He has death bowling for this franchise and has performed very well. They have bought Mitchell Starc, and it has proved to be a big steal. His fees have been reduced by 50 percent compared to last time. This time he had to come in a big auction. As soon as you get into a big auction, your price gets cut in half. They also have Mohit Sharma. Delhi has the best spin bowling of this tournament- Chopra At the same time, due to the presence of Akshar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav, the spin bowling of Delhi Capitals is strong. Both the players can prove fatal for the opposing teams in the middle order. Delhi has the best spin bowling of this tournament and interestingly, they did not need an auction because they have Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav. No team has eight overs of this kind of spin and that is why both were retained. He was given a lot of money and asked to stay. On the small ground and flat pitch of Delhi, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, a lot of sixes are hit. If you don’t have quality there you get exposed. Quality is the only thing that sets you apart from others, and the two spinners here shine like gold.

If all the players remain fully fit then the team can secure its place in the Final 4. I would be surprised if the team does not make it to the Final 4. To tell the truth, I was quite surprised last season also. It seems that a lot of things did not go well for the team last season but now it has become a whole family.

Spend money and buy bowlers because the main problem behind ‘Ee Saala Cup Namde’ becoming ‘Ee Saal Bhi Cup Rahe De’ is bowling. For this you need at least one quality Indian spinner, if it becomes two then great, and you need to have good fast bowling options.

However, when it comes to Pakistan, all decisions are taken by the Indian government, not the BCCI. Pakistan itself is to blame for this: Aakash Chopra The former player further said, ‘The Indian government has decided that he will not go there. In a way, Pakistan itself is responsible for this. Just yesterday I was watching a news that there was a bomb blast in Quetta railway station. Whenever we talk about India, Pakistan comes into it, especially when the issue of Kashmir is concerned. Pakistan has completely refused the hybrid model of Championship 2025. They want that this entire tournament should be organized in Pakistan only and India does not want to tour there for this event. This is the truth and now it will be exciting to see how this tournament is organized.

“He has become a prisoner of his own reputation” – Aakash Chopra gave a surprising statement about Abhishek Sharma
Aakash Chopra and Abhishek Sharma. (Photo Sourced: After India’s win in the first T20I against South Africa on Friday, former India opener Aakash Chopra has made a big statement regarding Abhishek Sharma. In the first T20 match played between India and South Africa, once again Abhishek Sharma’s bat did not work and he was out after scoring 7 runs in 8 balls. Abhishek was caught by Gerald Coetzee by captain Aiden Markram in the fourth over. The 24-year-old all-rounder has so far scored only 166 runs in 9 T20 International matches at an average of 20.75. Former Indian cricketer and famous commentator Aakash Chopra has made a surprising claim on Abhishek’s continuous flops. Aakash Chopra gave a big statement regarding Abhishek Sharma Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube on Saturday, “This is the story of two openers. On one side there is Sanju Samson, whose star is shining. On the other side is Abhishek Sharma, whose stars are in the ascendant. When Abhishek scored a century against Zimbabwe, he was a new rising star. But since then it has gone downhill. He was out against Coetzee in the first T20. Looking at the kind of shots he hit, it seems as if he has become a prisoner of his own reputation. He is not able to get rid of the reputation he has created (as a fast batsman). They feel that I play like this, so now I have to play like this. I won’t wait. In such a situation, another failure has occurred.” However, the former cricketer expressed hope that Abhishek will open in the remaining three matches against South Africa as well. But Akash also warned that if the young player fails to create a consistent impact then problems may arise. He said, “A time will come when problems will arise. Questions will be asked as to how long you will be associated with Abhishek. He will get a chance in three more matches. But with every match the sand seems to be slipping from our hands.”
