Chahal made his T20I debut in 2016 against Zimbabwe. The wily leg-spinner has bamboozled several prominent batting line-ups in the international arena. Despite not being a regular member of the Indian playing XI, Chahal has done exceedingly well in the shortest format of the game. Chahal was a part of the Indian team in 2022 T20 World Cup. However, he did not get a game in the tournament with Ashwin being the lead spinner. To note, Chahal picked up one wicket against SriLanka in the second T20I encounter and he will look to reach the landmark figure in the upcoming game.
