Wiser Yuzvendra Chahal looks to make a mark in World Cup with trusted weapons

India TV News  

March 26, 2015, was the fateful day when India's challenge in the World Cup ended with a 95-run defeat at the hands of Australia in Sydney. And as India gear up for the challenge of lifting the coveted World Cup trophy in England and Wales, Chahal's role will be of umpteen importance. Their performance in the third ODI against South Africa in February 2018 had led to captain Kohli earmarking them to be India's "X-factor" in the World Cup. While the former's big-hitting prowess overpowered them, India would record a 2-1 win over Australia and Chahal ended it as the second highest wicket-taker for his team with six scalps. When a Dhoni-led Indian team went to Australia in 2015 in an attempt to become the third team after West Indies and Australia to defend a World Cup title, Chahal's was an obscure name, one of the many grinding away in the Indian domestic circuit in the hope of donning the iconic blue of the national team.
