"He Has Been Finished": BCCI, Team Management Accused Of Ending This Star's India Career
NDTV
The star player has been missing action since Team India's T20 World Cup 2024 triumph.
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.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Chopra brought up the fact that Yuzvendra Chahal has been left out of India's ODI squad for a long time, despite not performing badly.
"Yuzvendra Chahal has been totally finished. His file has been closed. I have got no idea why they did that," said Chopra.
"It is an interesting case. He last played in January 2023. So it's been two years for him. His numbers are also very good. He has picked up a lot of wickets and was consistently doing well," Chopra said.
