Aakash Chopra said in a video on his YouTube channel, “The big news is that Rohit Sharma is not there as a captain, and Virat Kohli is there, but nobody knows what the road ahead will be. I read an article where it was written that their selection will be merit-based. I am wondering when their selection was not merit-based. Meritocracy only works. There is no favoritism or quota system here. India is doing well because whoever is good plays here. If you are good, you will play for India, and if you do well consistently, you will remain in the team.”

Chopra also suggested Rohit and Kohli participate in domestic tournaments like the Vijay Hazare Trophy and Ranji Trophy whenever they get a chance, as it would help them stay connected with the game, maintain match fitness, and adapt to different situations on the field.
He added, “It's said form is temporary, class is permanent. However, since you do not play any other format, knowing that form and seeing that class repeatedly won't be that frequent. That's the truth.”

He signed off by saying, “It's always the case that all-format players have a slightly longer career span. They are always in your thoughts. However, it's very difficult for single-format players, whether you are playing only Tests, ODIs, or T20Is. Not playing any cricket is a problem. The gaps are becoming very long. That is not a good thing.”
