“Selectors May Think For A While Regarding Deepak Hooda’s Selection”- Aakash Chopra: Former Indian team cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that the team’s explosive batsman Deepak Hooda should be included in the playing XI of the Indian T20 squad. He said that the Indian team needs a batsman like him at this time, and the form that Hooda is running is worthy of praise. Let us tell you, Hooda has batted very well for the Indian team in the last few years. He scored 47* and 104 runs in two T20Is against Ireland. In the first T20 match against England, he scored 33 runs in 17 balls.
Deepak Hooda Should Be In Playing XI
Aakash Chopra said about Deepak Hooda in a question-and-answer session on his YouTube channel, ‘If Deepak Hooda’s recent form is seen, then he should be in the playing XI of the Indian T20 team at this time. At the moment, many batsmen are not batting well than him. For me, form is more important than experience in T20 cricket. Looking at the form, he should be included in the playing XI. He further said, ‘The biggest question is, in whose place will he join the team? I don’t know. KL Rahul will be back, and Rishabh Pant is opening. So it will be difficult for Rahul Dravid and the company to decide.

For Rishabh Pant, Aakash Chopra said, ‘Rishabh Pant can prove to be a good opener in T20. They only play one way. The question is, what will happen when KL Rahul comes back? Will Virat Kohli bat in any other order? Nothing can be said now. I think Rishabh Pant will be an opener for India for a long time, maybe until KL Rahul returns. Do you know if Virat Kohli can open? It is difficult to say anything at this time.
