Legendary Former Indian Batter Sunil Gavaskar feels that including Deepak Chahar in Team India’s T20 World Cup Squad will be beneficial.
T20 Worldcup will held in Australia in October -November.
Deepak Chahar recently recovered from the injury, he included in the Aisa Cup Squad of Team India after Avesh Khan Ruled out due to illness.
Deepak Chahar played against Afganistan in the Asia Cup where he went wicketless in his four overs spell.
“I would say Deepak Chahar. He is the one I would certainly look at because it will be Australia and there will be extra bounce. And with the kind of movement that he generates with the new ball.”
“He is somebody who’s got to factor in if? you know we’ve always picked about 4-5 bowlers for the Australia or South Africa tour. And one if them gets wasted. But in a fast-paced tournament like the T20 I think to go with Deepak Chahar would be beneficial for the Indian team,” said Gavaskar on India Today.
Robin Uthappa said that Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah, and Harshal Patel will be important pacers including left-arm fast bowler Arshdeep Singh for T20 World Cup
“He (Bhuvneshwar) will bowl three in the top six and then one in the middle or towards the death. But I feel so that we will have Harshal and Bumrah predominantly bowling in the death. And he will play maybe to the tail end. Or just before the death overs he will bowl that one over. Or in case you want a wicket in the middle overs.”
“So, I think that’s how they’re going to use him. I think they will go with five fast bowlers anyways. And I think Arshdeep and Deepak Chahar will be the other two outside of Bumrah, Bhuvi and Harshal. And Hardik plays as the sixth fast bowler,” said Uthappa on ESPNCricinfo’s T20 Timeout show.
