An off season with the ball for Yuzvendra Chahal so far

Notably, Yuzvendra Chahal is the most successful bowler in the history of the IPL. He has picked up 206 wickets, which is the most by any bowler in the competition. PBKS spent a massive amount of ₹18 crore to acquire his services during the mega auctions.

However, it has not quite been a successful start to the season for Chahal with the ball so far. He has played four matches and has bowled only 11 overs, managing to scalp just one wicket at an average of 111.00 and an economy rate of 10.09.

In the game against CSK, he bowled just one over in the entire match, giving away nine runs off the same. While PBKS have had a successful campaign, they will want their key spinner to bounce back and get among the wickets as the tournament progresses.
