Aakash Chopra Thinks India Escaped Defeat in ODI

Aakash Chopra believes India narrowly escaped defeat in the second ODI against New Zealand. Chasing 135, India was 113-7 when rain halted play, leading to a win by four runs via the DLS method. Chopra noted, "We were staring at defeat if it was not for the rain and also for Rahul, who saved us the blushes to be fair." Gill acknowledged the team's wicket troubles but praised the bowlers for their performance.
