England vs India, 2018: 5 Player battles to watch out for

#3 Yuzvendra Chahal vs Alex Hales

Can Chahal get the better of Hales in the ODIs?

This promises to be an interesting contest. After England's hapless performance against spin in the 1st T20I, their batsman, especially Alex Hales came out all guns blazing in the second outing, unafraid to launch them into the stands.

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.
