NEW DELHI: Former India batter Aakash Chopra believes India should give Prabhsimran Singh a chance in the third and final T20I against Zimbabwe after already sealing the series. India have taken an unassailable 2-0 lead with convincing wins in the first two matches. The final game will be played in Harare on Sunday.Speaking on his YouTube channel, Chopra questioned why Prabhsimran has not been given an opportunity.“I am thinking of playing Prabh (Prabhsimran Singh) as well. What’s his mistake? You have selected Prabhsimran Singh, and we have no idea whatsoever when you would select him again.

You have won the series,” Chopra said.Chopra said India should continue backing Abhishek Sharma despite his poor scores in the first two matches. Instead, he suggested giving Ishan Kishan a break and bringing Prabhsimran into the playing XI. Abhished scored 1 run in the first T20I and then fell for 8 in the second T20I.“So play him (Prabhsimran) in place of Abhishek, or else play him in place of Ishan. You can actually play him in place of Ishan. Don’t play him in place of Abhishek. He hasn’t scored runs. Two matches have gone badly for him. So play him the third as well. Make him score runs, and if a bowling option is required, make him do that job as well,” the former opener said. Prabhsimran is yet to make his international debut. The Punjab Kings wicketkeeper-batter has scored 3,665 runs in 127 T20 innings at a strike rate of 151.50.“Give a break to Ishan. Prabhsimran Singh will easily do the keeping job as well. So you can use him like that as a player. This is an opportunity that can be given to Prabh,” he said.
