Yuzvendra Chahal's inclusion in the squad, despite not getting a chance to play, was a significant strategic decision by Indian skipper Rohit Sharma.
He had previously hinted at this in a press conference before the WC, stating that the mystery of choosing four spinners in the squad would be revealed in the second leg of the tournament during India's matches in the West Indies.
And as we saw Kuldeep Yadav's inclusion in the second half of the tournament bore fruit as he picked up wickets in crunch situations of the game. He has scalped 10 wickets from 5 games at a good economy of 6.95.
In the T20 WC final game against South Africa, India was able to set up a challenging total of 177, largely due to the strong partnership between Virat Kohli and Axar Patel.
India's chase had moments that seemed like they might lose the game. However, their unwavering determination and resilience, held up until the very end, resulting in their 7-run victory.
