Indian cricketers playing County cricket in 2025 season

Several star Indian cricketers have signed up with county sides to fine-tune their skills and gain match experience in the upcoming County Championship 2025 season. Notably, county cricket and the One-Day Cup are excellent platforms for Indian players looking to polish their game.

Especially those hoping to push their chances for national selection or make a strong comeback. Over the years, many Indian cricketers have benefited from the county system. The format has provided a different challenge, with seaming conditions, longer spells for bowlers, and a tight schedule.

Let's check out which star Indian players will be in action in 2025 county season:

4. Yuzvendra Chahal

India’s veteran leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal is set to return to Northamptonshire for a second stint in the English county circuit. The 34-year-old will join Northants from June 22 for the County Championship Division Two and the One-Day Cup.

His best performance came against Derbyshire, where he recorded career-best match figures of 9 for 99. In the recent IPL 2025 season with Punjab Kings, the leggie bagged 16 wickets in 14 games at an economy of 9.55.
