Former India cricketer Chandu Borde has stated that Rishabh Pant has no competition in the T20Is and he is an automatic choice in the team. Borde also praised Pant saying he can change the momentum of the game in no time with his aggression while playing at any position and is not just a finisher.

Former Indian all-rounder Mohinder Amarnath has stated that the hospitality that he received in Pakistan during his playing days was amazing. He also recollected some of his memories about his father and former cricket captain Lala Amarnath and mentioned that he was fascinated by Chandu Borde.

On the first day of the one-off Test match against Bangladesh, Cheteshwar Pujara broke a long-standing record for scoring the most number of runs in an Indian first-class season. The record was previously held by Chandu Borde, who scored 1604 runs in the 1964-65 first-class season.
