T20 World Cup 2021: Aakash Chopra Leaves Out India, Predicts The Two Finalists

Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has predicted two finalists for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 however he didn’t pick Virat Kohli-led India National Cricket Team.

India is considered as one of the favourites to win the T20 World Cup considering the strong squad they have. However, after the 10 wicket loss against Pakistan in the tournament opener India has a lot of things to fix in the squad. One of the main concerns India has is the sixth bowling option as all-rounder Hardik Pandya is not a fully fit bowl.

Also, the form of experienced pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar is a big concern for the team and many former cricketers have suggested that Bhuvneshwar Kumar should be dropped from the team and Shardul Thakur should come in as his replacement. However, it’s highly unlikely that India will make changes in the playing XI just after the first game.
