Watch: Yuzvendra Chahal spins his way to an outstanding fifer in County Championship | Cricket News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: Star Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal made a massive impact in the ongoing County Championship Division II match against Derbyshire on Tuesday.
Playing for Northamptonshire, Chahal spun his way through Derbyshire’s batting lineup, ending with a brilliant five-wicket haul.
His performance has sparked conversations, particularly with his omission from India’s squad in recent international series.
Northamptonshire batted first, putting up a modest total of 219, largely thanks to Saif Zaib’s impressive 90 and Justin Broad’s steady 45.
Watch:

Unfortunately, Indian star Prithvi Shaw, also part of the Northamptonshire lineup, continued his rough patch with the bat, contributing just four runs in the first innings.
In response, Derbyshire was bowled out for 165, thanks to Chahal’s masterclass with the ball. Luis Reece gave them a good start with a half-century, but after that, Chahal took over.

His list of wickets included Wayne Madsen, who looked dangerous on 47. He had already claimed the wicket of Aneurin Donald earlier, setting the stage for a dominant display.
Chahal’s performance didn’t stop there. He added Zak Chappell, Alex Thomson, and Jack Morley to his tally, finishing with five wickets and ensuring Northamptonshire secured a 54-run lead.
Off-spinner Robert Keogh chipped in with three wickets, adding to the pressure on Derbyshire.
