Leg spinners have an advantage bowling in Bigger boundaries because hitting against the spin can be difficult with large boundaries to cover. Chahal, undoubtedly, is one of India’s best leg-spinners at the moment. He could have fared well for India, especially in their games at the MCG and the SCG Grounds.
The leg spinners are one of the most reliable bowlers in the shortest format of the game. In the 69 T20I that he has played for India, Chahal has taken 85 wickets. Chahal’s stats in the last edition of the Indian T20 League also give him the edge. He took 27 wickets in 17 games to claim the purple cap.
The spinners were also in action in this edition. India did not take much advantage of this. They played Ravichandran Ashwin and Axar Patel, who are not the biggest turners of the ball, as the two spinners in all games. Chahal could have taken complete advantage of these conditions.
