The English Cricket Board and the Wales Cricket Board went on to have a joint venture when they started the Royal London One-Day Cup, which replaced the previously held ECB 40. For now, the 18 teams across the nations play in the tournament. Yuzvendra Chahal, the Indian leg-spinning maestro, was once one of India?s leading spin-bowling options across the formats of white-ball cricket, though he yet remains barred from playing red-ball cricket for the nation. Chahal has picked 121 ODI wickets in 72 appearances for the nation, while he also picked 96 wickets over 80 games played in the shortest format of the game.

 In last year?s County Championship, where Chahal played 2 games for the first ever time in England, he put on his brilliance, as he picked 9 wickets in 2 matches he played. This time, however, Yuzvendra Chahal was much in the buzz for making his debut in England?s limited overs championship. Chahal joined the <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/team/northamptonshire-1221">Northamptonshire</a> side for their final group-stage match in the London One-Day Cup against Kent. The Northamptonshire have not been in very good touch, as they are last in the points table from Group A. Chahal, 34, who now joined the team in Canterbury, went on to star in his very debut game. Chahal startled all, as he ended with amazing stats of 10 overs, 14 runs, and 5 wickets, also having bowled 5 maidens in the game.

 After this match, he will also be seen with the side in the County Championship for their next 5 games. This has been seen as a chance ahead for the 34-year-old to make a return to red-ball cricket and probably also fancy his chances of featuring for India in the longest format during the end of his career.
