Veteran Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh has fired shots at the Indian selectors for dropping Yuzvendra Chahal, the ace leg-spinner from India’s squad for T20 World Cup 2021. Notably, Yuzvendra Chahal was dropped from India’s T20 World Cup squad earlier this month when the squad was announced by the selection committee.

Chahal bowled exceptionally well against Mumbai Indians (MI) for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in match 39 of IPL 2021 as the two giants of IPL collided. The highest wicket-taker for team India in T20Is portrayed his experience in the game as he bowled four overs and claimed 3 important wickets giving away just 11 runs in his 4 overs.
