Chahal's decline

[sage]

 

Will the team management ditch their lead spinner months before the World Cup?

[IndianRenegade]

if they have any hope of winning they better try someone else.

Honestly jadeja makes most sense.

 

Atleast you get a batter and better fielder. 

 

Bumrah shami bhuvi pandya jadeja sunder 

 

Axe a batsman. Open with rohit and ishan

Or say natrajan if fit.

he is not bowling to his strength - his strength is 6th 7th stump line teasing bastman....he has been bowling middle n leg as if he is a big turner

[The Realist]

So when was Chahal's peak? 

Did he ever have one?

 

Getting in the team solely due to friendship with the captain is embarrassing.

He was always an average bowler. Considering the fact that he can't bat or field, he is one of the most fortunate cricketers at the moment who despite being middling is a regular in an Indian XI.

Chahal n Kuldeep r done. Time to move on. No need for weak ass players.

He has made earned over 50 crores in his international career - 30 crore of which is from IPL at 6 crore a yr for the last 4 yrs.

 

assuming he had 35 crore after taxes... 

and spent 10-12 crore for his lifestyle., he still is worth 20-23 crores atleast.

 

It takes a life time for 99.9th percentile of India’s smartest professionals earning about 

2 crores per year today to save that kind of money.

 

And here is poor quality cricketer saving up that Kind of money at the age of 30.

this is destiny , prarabdha karma.

Would be interesting to see ER, too.  I think that has also deteriorated of late.

They served their purpose well, we need to move on. Pathetic that our lead spinner is being consistently being out bowled by opposition spinners.

[The Realist]

Don't think this fraud played much under Dhoni.

 

Dhoniconda needed actual spinners who could keep it tight and take wickets

Given such numbers, old fashioned thinking of "let him have a 10-12 year career, he is only 30-31" needs to be thrown away in the trash bin. 3-4 years is good enough to amass a lifetime's worth of riches. Keep the pipeline of talent flowing - let other, more eager players come in and have their chance. If they also are good only for 2-3 years, so be it. There will always be replacements available for them.

Chahal has been useless in LOIs since 2019. He needs to be axed from all Indian teams. Zero batsman and zero fielder.
