Akash Chopra invites Venkatesh Prasad for a live discussion; he later refuses with a blatant remark.
Aakash Chopra was referred to as having a personal agenda by Prasad on Twitter, to which Chopra responded that the words were being lost in translation and encouraged Prasad to participate in a live discussion.
In response to the invitation, Prasad stated that nothing was mistranslated and that he did not want to discuss this issue with Chopra further.

Venky bhai, msgs are getting lost in translation. You here. Me on YT. I invite you to come on a Video Chat…we can do it Live. Difference on opinions is nice…lets do it properly 😊
I’ll not have any sponsors on it & nobody will make money out of it. Up for it? You have my number https://t.co/ZrAzWoJiTv— Aakash Chopra (@cricketaakash) February 21, 2023
No Aakash, nothing is lost in translation. In your 12 minute video you have called me as an agenda peddler because it didn’t suit your narrative.
It is crystal clear. And I have made my points very clear in this Twitter thread. Don’t wish to engage with you further on this 🙏🏼 https://t.co/GhlfWI0kHA

I have no agenda against any player, maybe there are others who have. Difference of opinion is fine but calling contrary views as apna personal agenda and Twitter par mat laayein is funny for @cricketaakash , considering he has made a great career by airing his views.
I have …— Venkatesh Prasad (@venkateshprasad) February 21, 2023
Honestly doesn’t matter , Aakash. In my view it is very fair criticism even if he scores a half century in the second innings . And between the match or after the match is irrelevant here. Best wishes for your lovely videos on YT, i do enjoy them. https://t.co/bkVGSEeg5w

In 21 innings for India, Rahul has averaged barely 30 with two 100s and two fifties to his credit. These are alarming statistics. In the game’s longest format, the strike rate isn’t much of a problem, but it is 10 points below his career average.
War Of Tweets
Prasad’s final Tweet was a veiled jab at Aakash Chopra, who urged the seasoned fast bowler to think twice before using social media at this time. “Mr Venky, Test match chal raha hai. Consider at least waiting until the end of both innings. We are all members of “Team India,” the same team. I’m not asking you to keep your opinions to yourself, but the timing could be a bit better. “After all, timing is everything in our game,” Chopra previously tweeted.
Chopra had the idea, and Prasad responded by saying that even if Rahul produced a half-century in the second innings, the timing was unimportant in this situation and that the criticism was still necessary.
KL Rahul’s Statistics For Test Numbers
- Innings: 81
- Runs: 2642
- Average: 33.44
- Strike Rate: 51.64
- 50s: 13
- 100s: 7
Those were Rahul’s career numbers, and he has had plenty of good fortune along the way; now let’s look at his numbers in Test cricket since 2020.

During the remaining two Border Gavaskar Trophy matches, Rahul has been snubbed as vice-captain. He must return as soon as possible and at his best. It’s possible that he’s running out of time.
