Aakash Chopra gave a big statement regarding Punjab Kings and Jonny Bairstow He said, “I did not understand Shikhar Dhawan’s dismissal. The keeper had come up. He was thrown out first. It is a bit surprising how he went out after the keeper came in. “You don’t usually see such mistakes from Shikhar.” He further said, “You can see it from others but not from the summit. However, he made that mistake. It will be worth seeing how many chances this team keeps giving to Bairstow because you are giving him a lot of chances but he is not giving you results. Bairstow has scored 81 runs in five innings in IPL 2024 at a disappointing average of 16.20. In such a situation, Punjab Kings can drop Bairstow in the upcoming match.

“The way Dubey is batting, how can you not take him in the T20 World Cup?”- Aakash Chopra
In his video, Aakash Chopra said, “I am sure it will be impossible for you not to take him for the World Cup. How can you not take that? Consider the way he is batting.

The left-handed batsman is the leading run-scorer for CSK in IPL 2024 so far, with 176 runs in five innings at an impressive strike rate of 160.00.
