In the past, one has observed that Yuzvendra Chahal has used the ploy to bowling it wide outside the off-stump to get the batsmen to chase the ball and eventually get him stumped, most famously against Glenn Maxwell in the ODI series last year in India.
If Hales does go after him in the initial part of his innings, it will be intriguing to see how Chahal responds and if he does take the option of bowling wide again.
