When a cricket fan asked Aakash Chopra whether or not he believes Sreesanth would make a comeback to cricket, the former India cricketer replied with a straight 'NO'. The reply seemed to have taken Sreesanth aback, who replied on the same thread that he's confident of making a comeback.

Kerala cricketer S Sreesanth still believes he can make a comeback to the Indian cricket team. Sreesanth, who last played for India in 2011, said this in a reply to Aakash Chopra. After Chopra questioned Gautam Gambhir's place in the Indian squad for the Bangladesh Test, a cricket fan asked the former Indian opening batsmen his opinion on Sreesanth and if he believes that the pacer will make a comeback to the Indian cricket team.

Aakash Chopra presumably was very clear about what he thought of Sreesanth's chances, and replied with a single word, NO.

This did not go down very well with the 33-year-old fast bowler, who was shocked that Aakash Chopra doesn't believe that he can start playing cricket again.

@cricketaakash @im_jeswin I will make a comeback brother..can't believe u don't believe that I will play again..anyways God bless us

To be fair to Chopra though, given the activities that Sreesanth has been busy with these past few years, it's hard to visualise him making a comeback. After he was banned from cricket in 2013 for his involvement in spot-fixing, he has already made his Malayalam film debut and is also working on a Hindi film. The cricketer also joined the Bharatiya Janta Party last year and contested the Kerala assembly elections from the Thiruvananthapuram constituency.
