‘Le Aakash Chopra: mitti mein mila denge’ – Fans react as former India batter’s bizarre prediction for MI vs PBKS match goes wrong

Aakash Chopra is one of the most well-liked pundits in India, who is renowned for his amazing commentary. But what has made him special is his command of the Hindi language and his artistic expression. Meanwhile, the 45-year-old cricket expert enjoys predicting outcomes before games, from Dream XI to which team would prevail depending on the playing conditions and other factors.

However the majority of Chopra’s predictions for the ongoing IPL 2023 season, have been wrong, and the internet can’t stop mocking him for it. Notably, in the recent match between Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings, Chopra predicted Rohit Sharma’s MI to clinch the game. But he failed miserably as Sam Curran and the company halted MI’s three-match winning run.

In the game, MI failed to chase 215 runs in 20 overs as they were restricted to 201 runs at the end of 20 overs. Star India pacer Arshdeep Singh defended 16 runs in the last over as Mumbai lost four back-to-back wickets in the last over. However, Cameron Green and Suryakumar Yadav with wonderful half centuries tried to clinch the game but eventually failed to do so.

Mumbai Indians are set to face Gujarat Titans in the next game

This is MI’s third loss after three consecutive victories in the season. The team is currently placed at number 7 in the points table with six points in six games. MI will now head to Ahmedabad to face Hardik Pandya’s Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The team will look to make a strong comeback and beat defending champions in their backyard.

Meanwhile, this is Punjab’s fourth victory in seven games. PBKS lost their last game against Royal Challengers Bangalore and they made an amazing comeback to win this game. The team will look to continue their dominance as they will head to Mohali to host Lucknow Super Giants in their home ground.

Here is how fans react to Aakash Chopra’s match predictions:

People who make teams on Dream11 and other such platforms pay keen attention on what Akash says so that they can do just the opposite.
