After a disappointing performance with the bat in the first innings, India made a brilliant comeback in the second innings. Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul laid a strong foundation by playing brilliant innings, after which veteran batsman Virat Kohli also managed to score his century. It is worth noting that before the series, there were many questions about Kohli’s form in recent times, but by scoring a century in Perth, he has silenced his critics. Talking about his performance and the criticism he has faced in recent times, former India cricketer Ajay Jadeja gave his statement and backed Kohli to perform even better. Ajay Jadeja said, “Doubters can rest in peace…the name says it all. If there were doubters, they can rest in peace. Talents are not born overnight.” Aakash Chopra gave a big statement regarding Virat Kohli Talking about Virat Kohli, this legendary batsman was retained by IPL (Indian Premier League) franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 21 crore before the new season of the tournament. Apart from this, Bengaluru also added many players to their squad in the recently concluded IPL mega auction. However, many have come forward and discussed a possible captain for RCB in IPL 2025. Recently, former India cricketer Aakash Chopra has expressed his opinion on this and said that RCB has probably made up its mind to choose Virat Kohli as its next captain. Chopra said, “When they have not picked anyone, they have probably made up their mind to go back to Virat Kohli and he will be the captain of this team once again. He also thought that he would not choose anyone who was with him.”
“Take out Labuschagne” – Former Australian legend gave a shocking statement before the pink ball test.
Labuschagne had scored two half-centuries in the first Test played against Pakistan this year. However, the world No. 1 batsman in Test cricket has looked out of form since then. He has scored just one half-century in his last 10 innings in the longest format of the game. Labuschagne recorded scores of 2 (52) and 3 (5) in the first Test against India at the Optus Stadium in Perth. He was out LBW in both the innings. Mitchell Johnson gave a shocking statement regarding Marnus Labuschagne Mitchell Johnson wrote in his column in ‘Nightly’, “Marnus Labuschagne has been struggling to score runs for a long time and another player should be fielded in his place in the second Test match in Adelaide. This does not mean that anyone was made a scapegoat for the crushing defeat in the first Test match. Johnson believes that Labuschagne should play domestic cricket to get back in form.
“They need to trust their game like Virat” – Ponting gave knowledge to Smith and Labuschagne before the Adelaide Test.

In the first Test played in Perth, Labuschagne looked completely out of form against the Indian fast bowlers led by Jasprit Bumrah and could score only 2 runs in 52 balls and 3 runs in the second innings. In that match, Australia had to face a crushing defeat of 295 runs. Smith also struggled against Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj in the first Test match. This star batsman of Australia could not open his account in the first innings, whereas in the second innings he scored 17 runs on 60 balls. Ponting gave important advice to Smith and Labuschagne before Adelaide Test Ricky Ponting said in the ICC review, “Of all the batsmen in Perth, Marnus was seen struggling the most. It is true that the wicket was difficult and the Indian bowlers were bowling brilliantly but they have to find a way to change it. For this, the former Australia captain gave the example of Kohli, who was out after scoring five runs in the first innings and was out in the second innings. Was successful in making a comeback by scoring 100 unbeaten runs. Ponting said, “Virat trusted his game and he looked like a different player in the second innings compared to the first innings. Instead of fighting the opposing team, he focused on his strong points. That’s what Marnus and Smith need to do – find their way and show strong intentions.” Ponting asked the Australian batsmen to take more risks and put pressure on the Indian bowlers. “You have to find a way to take risks and put pressure on the bowlers because we all know that bowlers like Bumrah will not give you easy opportunities to score runs,” he said.
“The best in death overs…”, Aakash Chopra gave a big statement regarding the bowling unit of Delhi Capitals.
Aakash Chopra says that Delhi has the best bowling attack in death overs. 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.
“Make Akshar the captain, he is greatly underestimated”- Aakash Chopra gave a big statement regarding the captaincy of DC.
Aakash Chopra and Rishabh Pant (Image Credit- Twitter Former player Aakash Chopra believes that Delhi Capitals (DC) should appoint Axar Patel as their captain before KL Rahul for IPL 2025. He said that the spin-bowling all-rounder has been a great performer for the franchise and will lead the team well. Delhi Capitals had released their last season’s captain Rishabh Pant before the auction, while retaining Akshar for ₹16.50 crore. They failed to re-acquire Pant but bought Rahul for ₹14 crore. Delhi Capitals should make Akshar Patel the captain – Aakash Chopra Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel, “Who will be the captain? Their situation is like KKR. Could be Akshar Patel. I have no objection to him becoming the captain. If you give me a choice, I would say make Akshar the captain. He is very underrated, very mature, performs brilliantly and will run the team very well. He is a player who will be respected.” Delhi Capitals have included KL Rahul in their camp by paying Rs 14 crore, this is also being said to be the steeliest deal of this auction. On one hand, the bid for Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer has crossed Rs 26 crores, on the other hand, if a team gets a player like KL Rahul for Rs 14 crores, then it would not be wrong to call it the steeliest deal. Chopra further said, “KL Rahul can be another option. The third option could be Faf du Plessis, if they so choose, but they cannot start Faf from the start as they have used the Right to Match (RTM) card for Jake Fraser-McGurk. So I am thinking between Akshar and Rahul, but the management has not given any clarity yet. My vote is in favor of Akshar because his performance on this field has been exceptional.”
I would be very surprised to see if Mumbai Indians…: Former player gave a surprising statement after the mega auction of IPL 2025
After the IPL 2025 auction, Mumbai Indians team is looking very strong. Mumbai Indians (Image Credit- Twitter Mumbai Indians included many strong players in their team in the mega auction of Indian Premier League 2025. Not only this, before this auction they had also retained five Indian players. These players were Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Tilak Verma and Suryakumar Yadav. After the IPL 2025 auction, Mumbai Indians team is looking very strong. Recently, former player Akash Chopra presented his side regarding the Mumbai Indians team. According to Aakash Chopra, Mumbai Indians team can qualify in the playoffs of Indian Premier League 2025. Not only this, he also said that he would be quite surprised if the team does not qualify for the playoffs. Aakash Chopra shared a video on his official YouTube channel in which he said, ‘The first 12 players are looking good. You can even go up to 13 as the team will need backup as well. The team’s backup is not that good. Fitness will also be very important. It is very important to see whether the bowling lineup of Mumbai Indians remains fit or not. 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. Mumbai Indians team will definitely win at least 5 out of 7 matches in Wankhede: Aakash Chopra The former player further said, ‘It will be very important to see how the team performs at Wankhede because it is their home. Looking at the way the team is setup, it can be said that Mumbai Indians will definitely win 5 out of 7 matches at Wankhede. They can register victory in 6 matches also. Even though the team has less spinners, the fast bowling lineup is quite strong. Mitchell Santner’s role is going to be very important in the upcoming season.
