For the past several days, a video of Indian all -rounder Irfan Pathan is viral on social media, in which he makes a big allegation against former captain MS Dhoni. In the viral video, Irfan says that Dhoni used to choose players in the team, who used to set hookah in his room. Now the statement of former cricketer and famous commentator Akash Chopra has come on this statement of Irfan. Akash retaliated at Irfan and has supported Dhoni.
Akash Chopra reversed Irfan Pathan
Akash Chopra has dismissed Irfan Pathan’s allegations outright. Akash Chopra said that the captain always does the best team selector. He chooses a winning team. What happens in the captain’s room, who does what, does not affect the captain. The captain has to choose a team that can win.
Akash Chopra further said that if the captain feels that a player is not doing well under pressure, then he is not chosen. The one who performs well under pressure, the captain chooses it. He further said that it is not new that the players of the captain or coach area get more opportunities. This is because they spend more time with those players. This cannot be called bias.
Irfan had made serious allegations against Dhoni
Irfan Pathan had said in an interview to Sports that in 2008, there was a statement of Dhoni on the Australia series, in which he said that Irfan Pathan is not bowling well. Irfan told that after this he himself went to talk to Mahi. On this, Dhoni told him that there is nothing like this, everything is going on according to the plan.
Irfan Pathan said about being dropped from Team India, “I do not have a habit of putting hookah in anyone’s room nor talk about it. Everyone knows this, but you sometimes do not speak about it. It is better to perform any player’s job on the field and I used to pay attention only to this.”
