Kuldeep, Chahal Will be More Effective Towards Latter Stage of World Cup: Michael Hussey

Wrist spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal should be destructive towards the business end of the World Cup because pitches will be dry and it will put India in an advantageous position, reckons former Australia batsman Michael Hussey.

Chahal has taken eight wickets in four matches while Chinaman Yadav, who came into tournament struggling for form, has managed to dismiss just three batsmen so far. However, Hussey said, it will change as the tournament progresses. “Looking at the Indian team, they are wonderfully balanced team.

They have got all bases covered well and towards the back end of the tournament as the pitches (are) going to be dry and more used, the spinners would get to play more role,” Hussey told PTI in an interview.
