Though he was selected ahead of Ravi Bishnoi in the T20 world cup squad,
Yuzvendra Chahal didn’t play a single game in Australia. It had raised
questions then, but India preferred R Ashwin over him. Now, Dinesh Karthik,
who had made his national comeback for that tournament, has talked on the
Chahal vs Ashwin debate.These are all calls that are received by the captain and coach they had in
a certain player. To be fair, Ashwin started the tournament well but
probably didn’t end well. But Chahal would’ve definitely made a lot more
damage, it could’ve been an interesting choice, Karthik told“But hindsight is a very interesting thing to look at once the results
come out.”

Before the tournament, it was interesting to track which leg spinner India
would pick to play in Australia. Would they like most other teams go for a
quickish in Bishnoi and how would they go for the experienced Chahal who
is considerably slower through the air than Bishnoi.
