Any bowler can go through this period in his career, maybe Chahal is also in the same phase. Chahal is not able to find his rhythm and the team management should ask him to go and play domestic cricket. To get in form, it is very important for him to get match time. That is the ideal preparation for Chahal. I will not select Chahal in my World Cup team. Ravindra Jadeja will be in my team. If they are also not in rhythm then you have Akshar Patel or Washington Sundar or Ravi Bishnoi.

If I had to pick another leg-spinner, I would go for Ravi Bishnoi. Kuldeep Yadav is in a phase where he is in perfect rhythm. He just needs more consistency. He just needs to know how he will approach each team and venue. Even though the World Cup is in India, each ground has its own dimension. They have to prepare themselves according to each situation.
