His passion for the game of cricket is evident from the fact that he is constantly following the live-action even though he is down with COVID. He keeps tweeting his viewpoints constantly.
“Five-time champions. Four-time champions. Both started the #ITL 2022 with two consecutive losses. That’s why it’s imperative to view this season in isolation…. with the past laurels counting for precious little. Big auctions can do that…. often do that” – Aakash tweeted after Mumbai lost to Rajasthan.
He assured his fans that the symptoms still now are mild and he will be back behind the microphone soon.
