IPL 2022: Yuzvendra Chahal leaves internet stumped with witty response to Aakash Chopra's tweet; Suresh Raina reacts
While Yuzvendra Chahal has been impressive in the field, his off-field antics too have been at its best.
Rajasthan Royals' new recruit Yuzvendra Chahal is having a great outing with his new franchise, who currently sit at the top of the points table in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League. The spinner is one of their main force and he has so far lived up to his reputation. In the two matches the franchise have played, Chahal has picked five wickets and conceded just 48 runs at an economy of exactly six.
While Chahal has been impressive in the field, his off-field antics too have been at its best. The 31-year-old came up with a witty response when cricketer-turned-analyst Aakash Chopra posted a tweet, suggesting “100+ metre six should be given an 8.”
Chahal was quick to react to the suggestion, and he came up with one of the best replies possible. “Three dot balls should be 1 wicket bhaiya,” the spinner wrote in response.
While fans surely enjoyed the banter, former India and Chennai Super Kings player Suresh Raina also reacted to it.
Meanwhile, Rajasthan Royals have been on a roll after assembling one of the best possible squads in the mega auctions. The team have dominated with both bat and the ball and secured comprehensive wins over Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians.
The franchise will look to maintain their winning run when they next lock horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday.
