- Yuzvendra Chahal not creating the same impact as Kuldeep Yadav
Kuldeep Yadav was the star of the Indian team in ODI series with 9 wickets from 3 matches. In the first match, left arm Chinamen bowler ripped the England batting line-up with 6 for 25. At Lords, he picked 3 wickets but was expensive giving away 68 runs. In deciding ODI, Kuldeep Yadav was taken for 55 runs and also did not pick any wicket.
His spinning partner Yuzvendra Chahal did not have the same impact. He gave away 51 runs in his 10 overs and took only 1 wicket in the first ODI at Trent Bridge where India won the match by 8 wickets. In the 2nd ODI at Lords, Chahal bowled well giving away 43 and taking 1 wicket. At Leeds, despite being best bowler giving away 41 runs, the right arm leg spin bowler did not pick any wicket.
Chahal needs to work on his variations if he wants to be in the 2019 World Cup squad. He performed well in ODI series against South Africa this year.
