Aakash Chopra suggests changes for India ahead of third T20I vs Zimbabwe
Summary

Former India batter Aakash Chopra recommends that the Indian cricket team make changes for the third T20I against Zimbabwe in Harare on July 30. With the series already won 2-0, Chopra advocates for including Prabhsimran Singh in the playing XI, potentially replacing Ishan Kishan. Chopra emphasized backing Abhishek Sharma despite his struggles with the bat, having scored 1 and 8 runs in the first two matches. Prabhsimran, yet to debut internationally, has a solid T20 record and could enhance the team’s performance.
