T20 World Cup: Why Was Yuzvendra Chahal Not Picked? Add Him & Harshal Patel In Squad, Suggests Madan Lal
Sunday is the last day of making any changes to the Indian T20 World Cup squad as per the ICC rules, and former cricketer Madan Lal has suggested the national selectors to include Yuzvendra Chahal and
Chahal has been in decent form in the ongoing UAE leg of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021. As he is getting better with every game, his absence in Team In'ia's 15-man T20 World Cup squad has now become one of the major points of discussion among the experts of the game.

Meanwhile, Patel, too, has put in some impressive performances, one of which is a hattrick against Mumbai Indians. He is the current Purple Cap holder with a whopping 30 wickets to his name in 14 matches. His slower deliveries have arguably been the most difficult to pick for batsmen in the IPL this season. IANS has also learnt that Patel is in contention to be added as a net bowler to the Indian side in UAE.
"I am still unable to understand why Chahal was not picked at first. He has been performing well and is our best spinner. He did well in the past and also in the ongoing IPL. I was a bit shocked when I got to know about Chahal being ignored. The second is Harshal Patel. He should be included in the team as well," Madan Lal told IANS.
"Whom the selectors will replace in the team that will be their call. They should make a balance accordingly which will help the team in the tournament. But my suggestion is these two players, Chahal and Patel, must get included," he replied to a query.
