Yuzvendra Chahal Profile: In recent times, out of many bowlers, not many have been able to excel as spinners in the game of cricket, as this era mostly comprises legendary batters. Chahal has established himself as one of the most quality white-ball bowlers of the recent era and asserted to be highly convincing, especially in the first phase of his career, but has not been that convincing since his return to the Indian cricket team in 2020 after enjoying immense success over all these years.
His bowling style, which combines both variations and sublime accuracy, is often referred to as one of the finest ever in the shortest format in the world. He is also known for his prolific ability to bowl in several parts of an innings, especially the death overs, and is widely regarded as one of the very few spinners with the old ball in limited-overs cricket with many variations and a wide degree of speed variation on stock balls.
