Ex-Spinner Harbhajan Singh Fumes Over Chahal's Exclusion From T20Is vs. South Africa
After being out of the Indian team for a lengthy period, veteran leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal is ready to make his comeback during the upcoming tour of South Africa. On the back of stellar campaigns in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and the Vijay Hazare Trophy, Chahal was named in the squad of team India for the three-match ODI series against the Proteas. While the recall might be a huge morale booster for Chahal, former spinner of India Harbhajan Singh feels the selectors have given him a "lollypop," while also pointing out his exclusion from the T20I series.
Harbhajan, on his YouTube channel, said, "There is no Yuzvendra Chahal in T20 format. You kept him in ODIs but not T20Is. Lollypop de diya hai bande ko. We won't take in the format where you do well, but we will take in other formats. It's beyond my understanding.”
