"There Will Be Changes In Spin Department": Ex-India Star Bats For Yuzvendra Chahal's Inclusion In India XI

Former India pacer Sreesanth expected to see a shift in the composition of the Indian bowling attack with the change of location and said that star spinner Yuzvendra Chahal should come to India's playing eleven once the 'Super 8s' stage of the ICC T20 World Cup begins in the Caribbean islands. India selected four spinners for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024, but pace has been the major component of their assault in the first three games of the tournament. India captain Rohit Sharma used only three overs of spin against the United States on Wednesday in the Group A match at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, as pace bowling proved most effective on the low-scoring New York pitch.

Axar Patel bowled all three of those overs, and India has bowled only nine overs of spin in three matches at the ground - against the United States, Pakistan, and Ireland - with Axar bowling six and Jadeja bowling three.

It's an uncommon situation for a group that includes four front-line spinners, with Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal confined to spectator duties so far in the World Cup, despite both coming off strong Indian Premier League (IPL) seasons.

However, this will undoubtedly alter, when India travels to Florida for their final Group A match against Canada before proceeding to the Caribbean for the second round and, maybe, knockout stages.

With the change of location, expect to see a shift in the composition of the Indian bowling attack.

Sreesanth feels Axar Patel playing the role of a typical all-rounder will make the playing XI selection process hard for India to drop out someone when they head to Barbados for ICC T20 World Cup Super 8s.
