Aakash Chopra has talked about Ajinkya Rahane and the CSK department to focus on Mustafizur Rahman and Mathisha Pathirana.
Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings are going to face each other in the 29th match of IPL 2024 at Wankhede Stadium today on 14th April. Mumbai and Chennai are the two most successful teams of ‘IPL’. Both these teams have won five titles each so far. In such a situation, this year both the teams have a chance to make the record of winning the most IPL trophies.
Before this season, both the teams have got new captains. Ruturaj Gaikwad took over the command of Chennai from Dhoni, while Hardik Pandya was made the captain of Mumbai in place of Rohit Sharma. But the rivalry between both the teams is the same old. This is the El-Clasico match of IPL where two legendary teams come face to face.
Aakash Chopra gave a big statement regarding this match
Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra has shared some interesting information ahead of the much-awaited clash between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, April 14.
Chopra has said that everyone should watch Shivam Dubey’s batting in today’s match, he believes that Dubey will wreak havoc against the spinners today. Dubey is eyeing a place in the Indian T20 World Cup team, so he will definitely be trying to give his best performance, especially in front of Hardik Pandya’s team.
Regarding Shivam Dubey, Aakash Chopra said-
“There is a kid in Chennai, his name is Shivam Dubey, who is actually a Mumbai kid. He has been hitting the ball very hard so far. “In today’s match, he will hit two or three balls towards Marine Drive, one towards Church Gate and one towards Air India Building.”
“If you are talking about high-scoring games, you have to go with your six-hitters – find a batsman who has the ability and power to hit sixes consistently and Shivam Dubey definitely has these qualities. He also has fire inside him, and his aim is to make the World Cup team, so he is going to prove to be very lethal.”
Along with this, Aakash Chopra has asked Ajinkya Rahane and the CSK department to pay attention to Mustafizur Rahman and Mathisha Pathirana.
