“We are not wrongly giving him the status of ‘Prince’”- Why did Aakash Chopra give such a statement about Gill
Team India’s star batsman Shubman Gill is in great form these days. He recently scored a brilliant century in the second innings of the Test match played against Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Gill was greatly applauded after that innings. Meanwhile, now former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has made a big statement on Shubman Gill. Aakash Chopra believes that Shubman Gill has proved the ‘Prince’ tag right. Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra defended Gill, citing the number of centuries he has scored in international cricket since the start of 2020, which is actually more than the centuries scored by players like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Aakash Chopra made a big statement in praise of Shubman Gill The former Indian cricketer further said, “Who has scored the most centuries for Team India this decade? This is very interesting. There was a tweet from CricCrazyJohns, and we said that we never realized this. He wrote about the most centuries for India in this decade in international cricket, “Shubman Gill has scored 12 centuries in 114 innings, it is absolutely phenomenal.” Chopra further added that the “Prince” nickname attached to Gill was not at all unfair, as he provided the exact stats of Rohit and Kohli in comparison to Gill. The former batsman further added that, “Rohit Sharma has played 148 innings in the same time frame and scored 10 centuries. Virat Kohli has played 149 innings and scored 10 centuries and both of them are our GOAT. So Shubman Gill is going way ahead with 12 centuries. We are not giving him the status of ‘Prince’ unfairly.” Chopra further said that according to him, Gill has come to Team India to set some big records because it seems like success has been added to his bloodstream. Chopra said, “It is in his DNA. I am saying that this guy is running towards greatness because he feels, in fact he is confident. If he tries to do something in his mind, greatness comes out. This is a very good story for Indian cricket.”

(Image Source: X) The performance of the Pakistan team has been very poor for some time now. The team has failed to show a good performance in international cricket. Let us tell you that recently Pakistan played a two-match Test series against Bangladesh. Bangladesh won this Test series 2-0. Former player Basit Ali has made a big statement about the performance of the Pakistan team. He has put forward his point of view by comparing Pakistan cricket with Team India. According to Basit Ali, a proper system is in place in India, whereas in Pakistan the captain himself does not give the player a chance to progress. Former player Basit Ali said, ‘Captains like Mohammad Azharuddin, Sourav Ganguly and then MS Dhoni came to India. They took the players forward. A proper system is in place in India. If we talk about Pakistan, here the captain himself does not let the player move forward. The captain is afraid that he might lose his place. There is a lot of difference between the cricket of India and Pakistan and this is the bitter truth.’ It is very important for the Pakistan team to perform well in the Champions Trophy 2025 Let us tell you that the Champions Trophy 2025 is to be played in Pakistan itself. The team’s performance has been very poor in all three formats. Many questions have been raised on Babar Azam’s captaincy while in Test cricket, Shan Masood has also failed to play the role of captain in the best way so far. Before the Champions Trophy 2025, Pakistan has to play a Test series against England. After this, the team will also be seen playing an ODI series against Australia. Pakistan will tour Zimbabwe in the month of November. The team’s schedule is quite long even before the Champions Trophy 2025.

Exclusive: “I have never seen him drop a catch…”, Mohammad Kaif calls Rishabh Pant the best fielder
Mohammad Kaif praised Team India’s fielding coach T. Dilip and stressed that the level of fielding has increased because of him. Mohammad Kaif (Photo Source: Instagram) Former Indian player Mohammad Kaif is playing for Gujarat Giants in Legends League Cricket 2024. Gujarat won their first match against Urbanisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets. After the match, Mohammad Kaif talked about many things in an exclusive interview with CricTracker. Mohammad Kaif praised Team India’s fielding coach T. Dilip and stressed that because of him the level of fielding in the team has increased. He also described Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh Pant as the best fielders of the Indian team. Exclusive interview of Mohammad Kaif with CricTracker- First question: How was the match? Answer: I think the way Morne van Wyk played was amazing to watch. It was a tough pitch, day match. He kept wicket for the first 20 overs, then opened the innings and finished the match. So, so far in this LLC I have not seen such a great innings. Second question: What changes have you seen in the fielding of the team after T. Dilip came to India? Answer: They are doing a very good job. They have a big role. Suryakumar Yadav took a catch in the T20 World Cup, which was the turning point. So they have done a very good job and the level of fielding has gone up. The Indian team has performed well. Third question: According to you, who are the top-2 fielders of India? Answer: India is the world champion, Ravindra Jadeja is among the top-2 fielders of India. Jadeja has become an even better fielder with age. People say that with age you become slow, but Jadeja is a perfect example that if you focus on fitness, your performance improves, his fielding has improved. The second name I will take is Rishabh Pant, as a wicketkeeper, I have never seen Rishabh Pant drop a catch.

He said, “We all know about his variations, his thinking – one of the fastest thinking fast bowlers. We also saw some letdown in the way he bowled to Taskin (Ahmed). But one thing that came out today was that he is a bowler who has no weaknesses – whatever the opposition, the condition of the pitch, and that is really the best way to test his greatness.” Let us tell you that Bumrah completed his 400th wicket by dismissing Mushfiqur Rahim in the first innings.
