Deepak Chahar was seen in a new role today, he bowled two overs in the death while Harshal Patel finished his quota in the 17th over itself." Chopra continued: "There is no doubt that Harshal is low on confidence and conceding plenty of runs, but why is he being bowled in a different over? It is a slightly troubling situation."
