REGARDED as a limited-overs specialist, Yuzvendra Chahal has been a vital component of India’s varied bowling line-up as he forms a formidable partnership with fellow spinner Kuldeep Yadav. An attacking leg-spinner, the 28-year-old Chahal is a genuine wicket-taker as already proved by his exploits in this World Cup. West Indies could find him a difficult proposition given their weakness against bowlers of this type.
