It Is Like Akkad Bakkad Bambe Bo, There Is No Clarity – Aakash Chopra On Priyank Panchal Getting Picked Ahead Of Abhimanyu Easwaran

Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has questioned Priyank Panchal’s selection over Abhimanyu Easwaran as Rohit Sharma’s replacement in the Test squad for the South Africa tour stating that it’s like “Akkad bakkad bambe bo” and there is no clarity in selection.

Indian white-ball captain and Test vice-captain Rohit Sharma has been ruled out of the upcoming 3-match Test series against South Africa due to a hamstring injury and India named Panchal as his replacement in the Test team.

Meanwhile, Speaking on his YouTube channel Aakash Chopra highlighted that Easwaran was part of the India tour of England as a backup opener and now he is not selected. Chopra said:

“Abhimanyu Easwaran had gone to England. He was a part of the Indian team and was kept as the backup opener. But now he is not the backup opener. It is like Akkad bakkad bambe bo – that’s the feeling that you get because there is no clarity.”

Former Indian cricketer was surprised to see Panchal as the backup opener of the team.

“There is a twist in the story, that begs a question to be asked that what is happening in this world? Now it seems Priyank Panchal is the backup opener, which is surprising,” he added.

Let Me Be Honest, Priyank Panchal Is Not A Bad Choice – Aakash Chopra

Chopra believes that Panchal who recently led India ‘A’ in the shadow tour of South Africa is not a bad choice.

“Let me be honest, Priyank Panchal is not a bad choice – in fact when you saw Rohit Sharma playing as a Test opener, then also there was supposed to be a choice Priyank Panchal and Abhimanyu Easwaran but then Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri thought of opening with Rohit. Rohit started to open and Priyank Panchal and Abhimanyu Easwaran didn’t get a chance at all,” he explained.

Aakash Chopra was also surprised to see Jayant Yadav getting picked in the Indian Test squad ahead of Washington Sundar.

“Jayant Yadav is in the side although Washington Sundar has started playing but no one is talking about him, because Washington Sundar was the guy when you were celebrating the Gabba victory.

“He had made runs there and took wickets as well and did well in India also after that but he is not on the radar at all,” he added further.
