Yuzvendra Chahal Retires from First-Class Cricket, Aims for White-Ball Comeback
Yuzvendra Chahal, veteran Indian leg-spinner, has retired from first-class (red-ball) cricket after a 17-year career, concluding with 148 wickets in 49 matches. Despite his success in limited-overs formats, Chahal never played Test cricket for India, a dream he acknowledged as unfulfilled. His final first-class game was for Northamptonshire against Middlesex at Lord's. Chahal expressed gratitude for his red-ball journey and affirmed his intention to continue pursuing opportunities in India's ODI and T20 teams.
