Chirpy Chahal finishes batters softly
The Hindu
The leg-spinner leaves them flummoxed with his revs, dip, drift and control
The little man floors the big guns. He does not employ heavy weapons either. He kills ’em softly.
Watching him at work, you are reminded of the Muhammed Ali song, “He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.”
When Yuzvendra Chahal throws the ball up, he does the same. The revs on the ball cause it to either dip or drift.
The batter, whose eyes light up at the flighted delivery and who lines up for a massive hit, is flummoxed as he never quite reaches the ball.
The resultant catch is gobbled up. Chahal is the toast of his team.
He is an attacking bowler, always on the look-out for wickets. And he lures the batsmen to their doom.
