“Get Jasprit Bumrah to bowl with the new ball” -Aakash Chopra’s advice to Hardik Pandya before the MI vs RR IPL 2024 match

Former Indian opening batsman Aakash Chopra recently recommended MI skipper Hardik Pandya to entrust Jasprit Bumrah with the new ball, enhancing their opportunity to dismiss RR’s top-order batsmen during the powerplay.

He also expressed the belief that a substantial innings from Rohit Sharma at the beginning would alleviate pressure on Hardik. In a video on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra previewed the MI vs RR IPL 2024 encounter and stated:

“A big knock from Rohit Sharma and the pressure on Pandya the captain will be released slightly. Hardik Pandya the captain is once again the player in focus.”

“Get Jasprit Bumrah to bowl with the new ball because you need to get at least two among Jos Butter, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sanju Samson out in the first six overs. So will he give the new ball to Jasprit Bumrah?”

Chopra continued:

“Will he use the bowlers slightly better? And Will he play Luke Wood or show confidence in whoever he plays? Will he not get a spinner to bowl the last over? Hardik Pandya the batter – everyone else scored at a strike rate of 200-250 in the last match, so he was criticized a lot that he played very slowly. Sometimes you get stuck.”
