 Aakash Chopra on Virat Kohli

“It is a very interesting thing that Virat Kohli has not scored an overseas Test century for five years – the last time it came was in 2018, after that an overseas Test century hasn’t come. So that wait might end in this series. If you see otherwise, his numbers are good against all teams, but the West Indies and England are the two teams and places where his numbers are slightly lower based on his standards. they are very good based on other people’s standards. So the focus will be on Virat Kohli,” Aakash Chopra said in a video shared on his YouTube channel.

He further added that

“Ajinkya Rahane – it is an intriguing story. He was out of the team for 18 months. And suddenly you do well in the World Test Championship final and you become the vice-captain of the side. But does that mean his place is secured? No, he was the vice-captain once earlier as well when Kohli was the captain.” Aakash Chopra said

“It was in South Africa and he was dropped in the first Test. So I don’t think his place is cemented. I feel he will have to score runs. He will be able to save his place if he scores runs or else the vice-captaincy tag will not be of much use,”. Aakash Chopra added.
