'Criminal to think of benching Naman Dhir' - Aakash Chopra's massive statement ahead of 4th NZ vs IND T20I

With the T20I series already secured following three straight wins, India turns its attention to the fourth match against New Zealand. Analyst Aakash Chopra has argued that Naman Dhir must remain in the starting lineup due to his exceptional recent batting form, which includes scores of 42 not out and 31.

He suggested that if the team intends to include Shivam Dube, the veteran should replace Nitish Kumar Reddy instead of the in-form Dhir. Dube, a two-time T20 World Cup winner, has yet to feature in this series despite his recent international experience in England.
