He also insisted that the captain always chooses the best team to win the game, and it cannot be called prejudice or bias. Akash Chopra was told by Crax: “You want to choose your best team.
But if you have seen someone else in front of you and play under pressure, then you move towards them, and it is normal. You will see that the coach or captain from where the players will be more liked. It is not prejudice, not bias. It is just the fact that they have spent more time with them. ,
Akash Chopra defends MS Dhoni’s decisions as merit-operated
Cricket Pandit also highlighted the immense responsibility of resting on the shoulders of a captain, stating that winning the match and tournament is his last priority.
The former Indian batsman also stated that the decisions are made on the basis of who can help the team succeed, not off-field interactions or social mobility, to fulfill any favoritism under Dhoni’s captaincy.
Chopra further said, “Beyond this, what happens in a room, how many people sit, how many not – I don’t think a successful captain is worth his salt, that is going to be impressed by that factor. Finally he will have to choose a team that can win and players can take him to that destination.
So, the captain has a lot of ride on his shoulders, and the stakes are high. I do not think if no one spends much time with the captain, they will be treated adversely or dropped. ,

Irfan Pathan’s India Career
In particular, Irfan Pathan broke the Test debut against Australia in Adelaide on the international scenario under the captaincy of MS Dhoni in 2003, followed by his ODI against the same team in 2004. The former Indian all-rounder made his T20I debut against South Africa in 2006.
Pathan quickly left his mark with his swing, speed and easy batting. He achieved a rare achievement of a Test hat -trick and played an important role in India’s 2007 T20 World Cup Triumph. Despite his versatility, Pathan’s international career did not reach the heights he expected.
During his international career, Pathan represented India in just 29 tests, 120 Odis and 24 T20I. His last presence for India came in the 2012 T20 World Cup against South Africa, while his last ODI was against Sri Lanka in the same year where he took five wickets, but was still dropped and never remembered.
And at that time, Dhoni’s statement that Pathan did not go viral well, but later the former Indian captain refused when the latter questioned about the same.
