Aakash Chopra suggests that Vaibhav Sooryavanshi should replace Abhishek Sharma for India’s one-off T20I against Japan. The recommendation is made in the context of team selection ahead of the match.
Chopra’s comments, reported by NDTV, frame the change as a direct swap—“Abhishek out, Sooryavanshi in”—for the Japan game. While the two pieces highlight the same selection idea, they are presented with slightly different phrasing: both emphasize Chopra’s “blunt” advice and the specific names involved. The outlets do not provide additional detail in these excerpts on the match date, venue, or the broader squad considerations behind the call.
Overall, both reports agree on the core message: Chopra backs Sooryavanshi’s inclusion over Abhishek Sharma for India’s single T20I encounter with Japan.
