Kuldeep Yadav and I could have played together if Ravindra Jadeja was a medium pacer: Yuzvendra Chahal

Yuzvendra Chahal has said that his partnership with Kuldeep Yadav in the white-ball matches for India could have continued but the injury of Hardik Pandya and the comeback of Ravindra Jadeja changed the team's combination.

June 2019 was the last time when wrist spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal played together in a match for India. It was a league match against England in 2019 World Cup. Chahal leaked 88 runs in his 10 overs, while Kuldeep managed a wicket after spending 72 runs. The two spinners are regulars in the white-ball formats but hardly do they get chance to play together now. India enjoyed decent success when they used to bowl in tandem and their famous partnership was given a name as well -- 'Kul-Cha'. In an interview with Sports Tak, Chahal was asked about the reason why Kuldeep and him do not get to play together now. The 30-year-old gave a very straightforward answer and said that team's combination matters more than the duo playing together, adding that the comeback of Ravindra Jajdeja in the limited-overs squads led to reshuffling of orders in the playing XI.
