He last played an ODI for India against Australia in November 2020. Since then, he has only played the shortest version of the game.

“My performance – I don’t think it was a dip [in form] or anything. “You can’t perform in every match. I will try my level best. This series is very important to me,” Chahal was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.

“I keep having conversations with the bowling coach. They [management] have given us confidence, and that’s why I’m here. If it wasn’t there, no one in the team [would be here].

My main focus at the moment is just this series – there’s been lesser cricket over the last year, but that’s not in our hands. Whatever series happens, we want to perform. After this series, my focus will be on the IPL, and only then the [T20] World Cup. Right now, I’m focusing on this tour only,” he concluded.
