Yuzvendra Chahal and Sanju Samson were the two big names missing from the Indian T20I squad that was named for the five-match series against Australia. In the process, the BCCI selection committee continued to keep the two cricketers out of the Indian team.
Ravi Bishnoi, Axar Patel, and Washington Sundar are the three specialist spinners in the side, However, Chahal’s snub yet again sparks the debate around his future with the Indian cricket team. He played his last T20I against West Indies in August earlier this year.
Aakash Chopra in a video shared on his YouTube channel spoke about Chahal’s exclusion from the Indian T20I squad and shared his feelings regarding the future of the Indian leggie with the national team.

Is He Not Good Enough Anymore: Aakash Chopra On Yuzvendra Chahal
“Ravi Bishnoi is there but Yuzi (Yuzvendra) Chahal isn’t. It’s a slightly surprising thing to me that you have virtually turned your back on him. You neither played him in ODI cricket nor are you keeping his name for T20Is. Is he not good enough anymore?” said Chopra on Chahal.
Chahal is India’s top wicket-taker in T20I cricket with 96 wickets from 80 T20Is. Chopra meanwhile said that it cannot be of great help if the selectors have already decided that he is not worthy of playing international cricket anymore for the country.
“You start getting a feeling like that, which is not a good feeling because Yuzi Chahal has done well. It seems like the selectors have made up their minds and you can’t do anything if someone has made up their mind,” Aakash Chopra said on Yuzvendra Chahal.
The five-match T20I series between India and Australia begins with the first T20I in Visakhapatnam. The series ends with the final T20I in Bengaluru on December 3.
