Ever since the selectors took a bold decision to rest R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja for the one-day internationals and include wrist spinners Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav, Team India have hardly missed the senior Indian spin duo. Yadav and Chahal became regulars in Team India from the Sri Lanka series in October and have not looked back. Yesterday too, Chahal and Yadav struck in tandem as Sri Lanka slumped from 136 for two to 215 all out. Chahal finished with 10-3-46-3 while Yadav claimed 3-42.
