As debate and discussion continues surrounding India's squad for the Champions Trophy 2025, former India cricketer-turned-pundit Aakash Chopra has raised the curious case of leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal. Chopra stated that Chahal's career has been "finished" by BCCI and the team management for no apparent reason, arguing that the leg-spinner's statistics were impressive even when he was dropped from ODIs over two years ago. Chahal has recently been in the news over a reported split from his wife Dhanashree Verma, and did not take part in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024/25.
