Ignored – but Yuzvendra Chahal continues to shine for Rajasthan Royals. The ace spinner bagged 3 crucial wickets in the MI vs RR IPL 2024 clash. Interestingly, Chahal was extremely economic in his spell. He gave away just 11 runs in his 4 over spell. Chahal has been ignored from Team India since August, 2023.
Chahal has made a strong case for himself heading into the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup. It will be a big call for the BCCI Selection Committee who will announce India Squad in the end of April. Given how Chahal has performed in IPL 2024, he will be a strong candidate to be a prime candidate for the spin department.
Chahal has already bagged 6 wickets in 3 games for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2024. He got his first victim in the form of Hardik Pandya. The MI skipper wanted to go the distance but instead gave a catch to Rovman Powell.
Then Chahal went on to bag the in-form Tilak Varma as Ravi Ashwin took a stunning catch. The third wicket for Chahal came in the form of dismissal of Gerald Coetzee who was caught by Hetmyer.
Chahal’s sensational form will be a big boost for Team India with the T20 World Cup on the horizon. Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav are the prime candidates to lead the spin charge. But with Chahal’s form, it can be just a matter of time before fans get to see the Kul-Cha pairing again.
