Former India player Aakash Chopra has said that the Mumbai Indians (MI) don’t have any weaknesses or problems heading into their upcoming game against the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH). He added that Rohit Sharma’s return to form has addressed the only concern they
had previously.

In a video shared on his YouTube channel ‘Aakash Chopra’, he said, “The SunRisers Hyderabad’s sun is setting, and the Mumbai Indians are flying. They annihilated Chennai in the last match. Rohit has also come in form. Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma are in form, and Ryan Rickelton is looking good. Hardik Pandya has played some cameos in patches and picked up a five-wicket haul.”

“Trent Boult is doing alright. He is bowling in different stages of the game. Jasprit Bumrah is looking hot. This team is looking good. Now you cannot say this is a weakness or that is a problem. There was a concern that Rohit wasn’t scoring runs as an opener. When he too has scored runs, things become streamlined, and Mumbai are looking like that now,” he further added.

However, Aakash Chopra also stated that the SunRisers Hyderabad can challenge the Mumbai Indians only if they prepare a flat pitch and post a big total as well.

“I want SRH to make an absolutely flat pitch where their batters make runs because Hyderabad aren’t able to perform if it’s not a flat pitch. It could be an equal contest if Hyderabad score a lot of runs, or else the scales are tilted towards Mumbai. Mumbai are the better side at this point in time. They have more bases covered, and the opposing team is struggling a lot. Let’s be honest, their season is virtually over. If they lose this match, that’s it. I feel the Orange Army is not going anywhere this time,” Aakash Chopra concluded.
