3 Replacement options for Yuzvendra Chahal in T20 WC 2021 squad
Chahal didn't have the best of series against England and he strained in the 2021 IPL as well.
3. Rahul Tewatia
Rahul Tewatia has been plying his trade in the Indian domestic circuit since 2013, but it was only in 2020 that he came to the limelight. The southpaw smashed Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, helping his team get over the finishing line.
The fact that he has a strike rate of 148.23 over 75 T20 matches shows the amount of damage he can do with the bat in hand. The 27-year-old is more than handy with the ball in hand as he has picked up 44 wickets at a reasonable economy rate of 7.36.
The all-round attributes have made him a key member of the Rajasthan Royals as well. On the back of his shows in the IPL, Tewatia was also called up for the T20I series against England, but he couldn’t take part in the five-match affair after failing the fitness test.
