Former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh questioned leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal's exclusion from the India squad for Champions Trophy 2025 and said, "I don’t know what wrong Chahal did that he doesn’t fit in this team." "You could’ve included a leg-spinner for variation too. Chahal is a superb bowler," Harbhajan stated. Notably, the 34-year-old last played for India in August 2023.
