Aakash Chopra: Gill or Sanju? Team India’s big concern before Asia Cup 2025, Chopra gave important suggestion
Aakash Chopra: Who will the Indian team select for opening before the Asia Cup? Let us tell you about this news in detail
Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra advised to keep a backup opener in the Indian team for the upcoming Asia Cup 2025. He said that although the management will not be ready to play without Abhishek Sharma, but if we look at the combination of the team, then at this time there is no other opening pair in the team except Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson.

On his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said that “I don’t think anyone needs to go out. It is important that you keep another opener with you. India did not choose a third opener (in the T20 series against England). They were also not thinking about who will open if Abhishek Sharma or Sanju Samson do not come in form. If you do not keep the third opener here, then you have to keep him in the World Cup as well.”
Aakash Chopra: Difficult to play Gill and Sanju together
Chopra further said, “But, if Shubman Gill is the third opener, would you like to keep him on the bench? If you don’t do this and play him in the playing XI, then who will you play in his place? If that player’s name is Sanju Samson, then who will do the wicket-keeping? This is the problem. You don’t see Sanju Samson batting in the middle order. Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Verma will play at number three and four. Sanju at number five? This will not be a good thing.”
Recently, Sanju played a brilliant innings of 54 runs in just 36 balls at the Greenfield Stadium in Trivandrum. On August 15, an exhibition match was played on the occasion of the inauguration of the floodlights of this stadium, in which there was a match between Kerala Cricket Association Secretary 11 and President 11. After such a performance, if you keep players like Sanju out of the team, then it is not beneficial for you.
