Yuzvendra Chahal Hopes For Selection in IND vs ENG Test Squad after Successful Stint in County Cricket

Yuzvendra Chahal is optimistic that his successful stint in county cricket with Northamptonshire will bolster his chances for selection in India’s Test squad for the upcoming series against England. After a standout performance, where he took 24 wickets at an impressive average of 17, including multiple five-wicket hauls, Chahal expressed his desire to showcase his skills on a larger stage.

Reflecting on his experience, he stated, “County cricket is tough… it gave me an opportunity to showcase my skills against a very good standard of cricket” as he prepares for the Ranji Trophy starting October 11. Chahal’s aim is to impress selectors ahead of India’s tour to England next year, where he hopes to secure a spot in the team. His recent performances have drawn attention, especially after not being included in previous white-ball tours.

With several Indian players benefiting from county experience, Chahal’s aspirations reflect a growing trend among cricketers seeking to enhance their game through competitive overseas play
