Yuvvendra Chahal, who has played Team India’s leading spinner in ODIs and T20 cricket, has failed to make a Test debut. Chahal was not surprised as he was absent from the squad for the final of the World Test Championships and the tour of England. Having said that, they did not see themselves on the team during the tour. Chahal, however, said he hoped to find a place in the home Test series against England.

Speaking to SportsTalk, Chahal said, ‘I didn’t expect my choice this time. But yes, when the England team came to India and some spinners were injured, I had little hope that my name would be on the team. You can see that Akshar has come and he has done well. Ashwin, Jadeja and Kuldeep are already there, so 3-4 players are already in attendance, so it is very difficult to get a chance. Especially when they are doing well. Ashwin Bhaiya has completed 400 wickets in Test cricket and Jaddu has taken more than 250 wickets. After seeing them, it seems that you need to improve to get a chance.

Chahal continues, ‘Obviously you want to wear a white jersey. If someone calls you a test player, that’s the biggest compliment. In the last three to four years I have taken 50 wickets in 10 first class matches, two of which are against India-A. Chahal’s performance in recent times has not been particularly impressive. This is the reason they go in and out of ODI and T20 teams. Chahal’s fellow bowler Kuldeep Yadav has not been included in the England tour squad.
