Piyush Chawla Biography, Age, Height, Weight, Girlfriend, Family, Wiki & More

He represented the India U-19 team at a very young age of 15 and was also a part of the Uttar Pradesh U-22 squad. His main weapon is the well-disguised googly which has fooled many batsmen. Another product of the U-19 WC, he had a wonderful final match against Pakistan ending up with figures of 4/8 in the 2006 edition. 

 

His early exploits were noted as he made his debut for Central Zone against South Zone in the Duleep Trophy. An international call was not to be denied to this talented youngster and he promptly made his Test debut against England in March 2006. He is also one of the very few players to have been part of the World Cup-winning teams both in the T-20 format as well as the ODI format. His performances though left a lot to be desired. 

 

Piyush represented Kings XI Punjab in the first three seasons of the IPL with modest success and was the only Indian player to be bought back into the side in the subsequent auctions for a whopping 900,000$. In the 2014 IPL auctions though, after being not retained by Punjab, Chawla was bought by the Kolkata Knight Riders and has been playing for them ever since.
