The cricketer-turned-commentator believes that Virat and Rohit currently do not play much cricket, as they only feature in ODI cricket, and the limited games remain a problem for the two cricketing stalwarts. Rohit scored 11 runs off 21 deliveries, and Virat Kohli scored just 5 runs, in the game which India won by 6 wickets.
"Rohit and Kohli, this will always be a problem for them because an ODI series is generally of three matches. There is a series, then there is nothing for two months, then there is a series, and then nothing for two months. Virat didn't play against Afghanistan either. Rohit still played there," he said.
"So when will Virat Kohli's next ODI series come? I think September. So that is a huge gap, and it keeps coming repeatedly. So you want to score runs. They generally don't fail in the same match. They did in the previous match, but despite that, they have excellent numbers against England. You would want both of them to score the runs because this could be their last England tour," he observed.

The former opener also pointed out that Shubman Gill might win the series if India wins the second game, and it could be a huge boost as he will win his first series against a top opposition and that too away from home.
Aakash Chopra points out battle of Shubman Gill vs Joe Root
He stated that in the second game Shubman Gill and Joe Root will yet again get runs as they have been in sensational form in recent times. In the first game, Gill scored 80 and retired out, while Root remained unbeaten with the score of 76*.
"The better thing than that is the way his bat is talking. In fact, it's almost like Shubman Gill vs Joe Root. If we see this year's ODI numbers, you will say Shubman Gill is talking to the sky, and if you see the last two years' numbers, Joe Root has an average of 70. That is absolutely stellar," Chopra observed.
