Overview

• Surrey have officially included Rahul Chahar for the County Championship match at the Utilita Bowl starting September 24.
• The leg-spinner was registered earlier in September but was not used in recent home games against Warwickshire and Nottinghamshire.
• Injuries to Will Jacks and Cam Steel, plus R. Sai Kishore’s finger surgery, have left Surrey short of spin options.
• Surrey must beat Hampshire and need Nottinghamshire to collect fewer than 11 points against Warwickshire at Trent Bridge to retain the title.
• Chahar could make his first County Championship appearance and may face fellow India international Washington Sundar, who has joined Hampshire for the closing rounds.
