IPL 2026: Chahal Is Very Smart, Taking Out Gill And Buttler Came At Right Time, Says Kumble
Yuzvendra Chahal: Legendary India leg-spinner Anil Kumble praised Yuzvendra Chahal’s tactical nous in helping Punjab Kings beat Gujarat Titans by three wickets in IPL 2026, adding that his taking out Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler came at the right time for the side to start their campaign on a high.
Chahal’s spell of 2-28, along with Vijaykumar Vyshak’s 3-34, ensured PBKS kept GT to 162/8, which they chased down with five balls to spare. “Yuzvendra Chahal is very smart. He changes his line, length, varies his speeds, you name it. He didn’t try too many variations in terms of how he set up the batter.
“He kept bowling slightly wider and was very smart in that sense. He looked at the conditions and then aimed for the bigger side of the ground. He knew that if someone had to take him on that side, they had to connect really well, which they couldn’t.
