Chahal is currently with team India in the Caribbean for the ongoing three-match ODI series against the West Indies. He will return back home after the completion of the three-match ODI series as he has been rested for the T20Is.
The spin wizard is currently enjoying his best run and is almost a certain player to be included in the Indian squad for the upcoming T20I world cup 2022. Chahal displayed his bowling prowess in the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League, where he scalped 22 wickets and claimed the purple cap.
On the eve of his birthday, after the 1st ODI match, Chahal opened up on how the management backs him and how bowling in the Indian Premier League (IPL) helped him prepare for the international matches that team India is set to play in the lead-up to the T20I World Cup 2022. He said:
“The coach always backs me. He tells me ‘Yuzi just back your strengths, we trust you. I always back my strengths, I knew that the ball had become old and the ball can turn and beat the batters. So I was changing my line, bowling wider because the leg side boundary was a bit small so I thought if he hits me over cover it would be better. This change has come from the IPL because there I was bowling the 16th, 17th, and 18th over, so I got the confidence from there. My role was clear, I was told to bowl two-three overs after the 40th over. So I practice accordingly and also plan with our bowling coach“
