Cricket News 2025: India National Cricket Team pacer Akash Deep talked about playing under the leadership of Rohit Sharma in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. He said that he was very fortunate to play under a senior batter as he made things very easy for him.

Akash Deep picked 5 wickets in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25


Akash, after his impressive effort in the home Tests, made it into the squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The fast bowler didn't get to play the first two games of the series as Harshit Rana was preferred over him. But he made a comeback in the team for the third game.


Akash Deep was very unlucky but he bowled his heart out for the team. The pacer played two games in Gabba and Melbourne but managed to take five wickets at an unimpressive average of 54. He had catches dropped off his bowling, he beat edges ample of time, and also edges didn't carry as well which made things tough for him.

Akash Deep, in an interview with PTI, also lavished praise for Rohit Sharma, saying that the batter always told him that he could take a wicket on every ball. He said that the skipper always briefed him about his role. He added:


"Rohit bhaiyya had a lot of trust in me that I can take wickets anytime, 'Woh bolte hai hai ki mujhko lagta hai tum har ball pe wicket le sakte ho. I would be given a brief that in case I am not getting wickets, I should do the holding job at one end, slow down the game and run-flow so that things are under control.


"My endeavour was to maintain discipline, bowl in good areas and wait for the batter to make a mistake...doesn't matter if the ball is new, semi-new or old," said the pacer.
