Former cricketer Aakash Chopra has weighed in on Congress leader Shama Mohamed's remarks on India captain Rohit Sharma. Ahead of India's Champions Trophy semi-final against Australia, Shama, in a post which has now been deleted by her, suggested that Rohit is "fat for a sportsperson". In a separate post on X, Shama had also called Rohit "the most unimpressive captain". However, as India beat Australia in the semi-final on Tuesday, Shama backtracked from her comments on Rohit's captaincy, and praised him for his leadership in the game.
Legendary India batter Sunil Gavaskar advised Rohit Sharma to bat for longer periods of time instead of just concentrating on providing the team with a quick start. Following India's win over Australia in the Champions Trophy 2025 semifinal, head coach Gautam Gambhir defended Rohit's approach and said that the star batter is judged on 'impact' and not on his numbers. However, Gavaskar was not impressed with the remark and said that if a batter like Rohit stays at the crease for 25-30 overs, he will take the game away from the opponents and that should also be included in his gameplay.
New Zealand skipper Mitchell Santner on Thursday acknowledged India's familiarity with the slow pitch here at the DICS, but said his side is ready for a "scrap" in the Champions Trophy final.

Obviously, the surface will dictate a little bit of how we want to operate. It might be a little bit slower than what we got in Lahore. It might be more of a scrap, but we're down to scrap," Santner said after touching base in the city.
