Yuzvendra Chahal wears many hats leg-spinner, Indian team’s in-house interviewer, entertainer and funny man. Ready for his maiden World Cup tournament, Chahal spoke to The Tribune on a wide range of issues.

I am very excited as this is my first big tournament. Obviously, I want that we should come back with the World Cup, and whatever matches I get or whatever role is assigned to me, I perform well and play a central role in the team’s win.

In the recent England-Pakistan series, teams consistently scored over 340 runs. It seems that the wickets are flat in England, and the World Cup could be a torture for the bowlers.

But it all depends on the condition of the wicket. These days 350 runs are scored everywhere. Last time when we were in England, though they had registered a score of over 400, they couldn’t score that much against us. Whatever is happening now is happening against Pakistan. I don’t think we should read too much in the scores in the run-up to the World Cup. It will all depend on the weather and pitch conditions when the actual World Cup starts, as conditions change everyday.
