Which Indian spinner is currently not part of the Playing XI but is actively cheering on Team India from the sidelines during the T20 World Cup 2024 journey to St. Lucia?

**Yuzi Chahal Embraces Cheerleading Duty Amidst T20 World Cup Stint**

Despite being sidelined from the playing XI, star Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal is making his mark in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. Chahal’s enthusiasm and positive spirit were on full display as Team India embarked on their journey from Antigua to St. Lucia.

**Chahal’s Bus Conductor Avatar**

In a hilarious twist, Chahal transformed into a bus conductor during the team’s bus ride. Dressed in his Team India uniform, he enthusiastically announced stops and destinations, mimicking the antics of Indian bus conductors. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shared a video of Chahal’s performance on Twitter, drawing laughter and admiration from fans.

**The Team’s Journey**

The video captures the complete journey of Team India, from their departure from Antigua to their arrival in St. Lucia. Other players can be spotted having fun and interacting with the camera, including Sanju Samson, who engaged in some lighthearted banter with the cameraman.

After their victory over Bangladesh in the Super-8 stage, India now faces a crucial match against Australia in St. Lucia.

**Spinners’ Dilemma**

Chahal’s absence from the playing XI has been a subject of discussion. Despite being India’s leading wicket-taker in T20Is, he has yet to feature in the tournament. Instead, spin all-rounder Axar Patel and experienced duo Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav have been preferred.

Selectors’ Dilemma

On the eve of the Australia match, India’s bowling coach Paras Mhambreh addressed questions about the possibility of fielding four spinners.

It all depends on the pitch – I hope it’s not a spinner-friendly surface. I think, yes, the idea should be to play with three spinners, but I can’t confirm anything right now.

With Chahal’s enthusiasm and potential, it remains to be seen whether he will get his chance to contribute on the field.
