Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh spoke at length about two players, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, from India's World Cup team recently.

Speaking exclusively during a virtual press conference ahead of the Greatest Rivalry on Star Sports, Harbhajan said, "In my opinion, there are two people missing in this team. First, Yuzvendra Chahal, and second, Arshdeep Singh. Because a left-arm seamer, if he can bring the new ball inside, it makes it useful in the game.

"If he can get two wickets early in the game, I’m not saying that right-handers can’t do that, but a left-hand seamer can get an actual angle to get the wicket."

You can see how Shaheen Shah Afridi or Mitchell Starc have a huge impact on the game. When Australia won the World Cup, Mitchell Starc had a huge impact on the games; he sent Brendan McCullum out on the first ball. Incoming ball, with that speed, coming into a right-hander is always challenging."

"The second, being Yuzvendra Chahal, a proven match-winner, someone who has taken more wickets than any other spinner. If he was playing for any other country, I would think he would always be in the playing XI. But even after proving so much, I feel he should have been in the team.

"If I were part of the management, I would definitely play him in the team, because we are all stakeholders of Indian cricket and we want the Indian Cricket Team to do well. So, I feel these two boys could have been very handy in the World Cup, and especially in conditions where they know what to do and how to take wickets."

India are presently busy playing the ongoing Asia Cup 2023.

India will lock horns with Pakistan in the Asia Cup on Sunday.
