* Yuzvendra Chahal can prove to be important in the World Cup:

According to Sourav Ganguly, the wrist spinner can make a difference in Indian conditions when Team India competes against teams like Australia and England, and South Africa. In the year 2011 also, Piyush Chawla had excellent bowling. According to Ganguly, it is very important to have a wrist spinner in Indian conditions.

* Chahal was not given a chance in two T20 World Cups:

We all know very well that Yuzvendra Chahal is a big spinner and he is considered a wicket-taker. Chahal has proved this thing in T20 and ODI as well as in IPL, but somewhere Team India does not see faith in him because this leg-spinner has been allowed to play in a single match in two T20 World Cups continuously. Yuzvendra Chahal was not given a place in the squad in T20 World Cup 2021, apart from this Chahal was in the team in T20 World Cup 2022 but he was kept sitting on the bench and was not given a chance to enter the field.
