Veteran commentator Aakash Chopra has questioned who ‘Mr Fix-it’ is, a senior player who has reportedly shown his wish to become India’s interim captain amid the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) 2024-25 as well. While not revealing his guess, he also added that the player he is thinking about might be given that role too.

In a video shared on his YouTube channel ‘Aakash Chopra’, he said: “Who is this ‘Mr Fix-it’? Something like this is also happening that a senior player is saying he can become the captain as the team situation is not good, they are undergoing a transition, and he is going to play for the next few years. This thing also came out in public. Then you again start asking the questions that what is happening. Please let the series get over. Think whatever you want after the series. I am very, very disappointed. Over a period of time, we will get to know who is this ‘Mr Fix-it’. Everyone has started making their guesses. I also have a guess, which I won’t tell now, but my guess might be right. The Indian team might go in that direction.”

In the same video, Aakash Chopra opened up on veteran India batter Cheteshwar Pujara’s qualities which might have tempted head coach Gautam Gambhir to reportedly ask for the veteran batter’s inclusion in India’s BGT 2025-25 squad as well.

“Another thing was that Gautam Gambhir wanted to select Cheteshwar Pujara. What does Cheteshwar Pujara bring to this game? He brings solidity and stability. He gave exceptional performances if you see the last two (away) BGTs. It was a Player of the Series performance in 2018-19, and in the last one, he stood in the middle despite getting hit all over his body. So he (Gambhir) was thinking about a player like him. There if the coach wanted that and the selectors were refusing and the captain didn’t wish that, ideally, everybody should work in one direction,” Aakash Chopra concluded.
