  1. Aakash Chopra shares his views on Punjab Kings’ team changes Former India cricketer turned famous commentator Aakash Chopra has said that the Indian Premier Leaguefranchise Punjab Kings doesn’t have the proper pace attack despite having signed Nathan Ellis as a replacement pace bowler as well. However, the Punjab Kings won’t get the service of their key cricketers – Jhye Richardson and Riley Meredith, for the rest of second season of IPL 2021. They have added Nathan Ellis as one of their replacement players and are looking for another one as well. In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said: “Punjab has signed Nathan Ellis because Jhye Richardson and Riley Meredith, their huge investments as they had spent 20-odd crores on them itself, are both not coming. You are still searching for answers; you don’t have answers to every question that has come before you.” He continued: “They got this information very late. Nathan Ellis has decent numbers – he has been doing alright in the BBL. He made his debut recently and took a hat-trick as well, so he has been good and has done well and will get a chance here now.”

  2. However, Ellis has taken a five-wicket haul in the two T20Is he has played during Australia’s recent tour of Bangladesh. He took a 3/34 on debut, which also included a hat-trick, with the figures of 2/16 as well in the next match. And, Aakash Chopra also highlighted that the Punjab Kings should try to sign another overseas player as well. He further added: “To be fair, Punjab is still looking for another one because you do not have too many fast bowlers. They had great expectations from Jhye Richardson and Riley Meredith.” However, the veteran also acknowledged that the Punjab Kings have good Indian pace attack with the likes of Mohammed Shami and Arshdeep Singh. Notably, Chris Jordan is the other overseas pace bowler in the Punjab Kings team but he has failed to leave a mark so far.
