On the absence of Star Pacer, Aakash Chopra is left surprised
Cricketer-turned-commentator Aakash Chopra has said that pacer Deepak Chahar should have been included in the India squad for the upcoming T20I series against Afghanistan. The Men in Blue will lock horns against Afghanistan in the three-match series starting on Thursday, which will take place in Mohali, Bengaluru, and Indore, respectively.
The hosts have included Arshdeep Singh, Mukesh Kumar, and Avesh Khan as their three frontline seamers. Speaking on his YouTube channel, the former India opener said that Chahar should have been part of the T20I squad if he had made himself available.

Chopra said, “Interestingly, only three fast bowlers have been selected. Arshdeep Singh, Mukesh Kumar, and Avesh Khan are there. Deepak Chahar was also picked for the South Africa T20Is, but he didn’t go because his father was not well. His father’s health is better now. I am sure he must be available.”
The former India cricketer added, “I haven’t given him a call; I should maybe. But why isn’t he on the team? I can understand Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah not being there, but I am slightly surprised that he is not there. In my opinion, if Deepak Chahar was available, his name should have been there.”
