'I can call them anytime' - Yuzvendra Chahal on his bond with Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma

Star Indian wrist spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has recently opened up about his bond with several senior Indian cricketers such as MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Chahal is one of the most fun-loving characters in the Indian team and is often seen pulling off pranks with his teammates or shooting funny short videos.

Recently in an interview, Chahal said that all senior players of the team are like his bros as he can call them anytime and discuss his problems. Notably, Chahal is enjoying his time off the field and will be seen back in action in the upcoming ODI and T20I series against West Indies.

“My teammates are my bros. Mahi bhai, Virat bhaiyya, Rohit bhaiyya or Sanju - there are so many people, I can call them anytime and tell them that I have this particular problem and want to discuss it. There are always ready to hear me out," said Chahal on The Ranveer Show.

The Haryana-born cricketer further revealed that since the players spend so much time with each other, they become like a family.

“We spend so much time with each other. If we are together for a month, then it becomes like a family. I think you don’t discuss thing as openly with you family as you do with your teammates. We discuss about personal lives, future plans, and so on. I am not able to discuss some things with my wife as well. I am trying, but it has happened 5-10 percent,” he further added.

Chahal became the highest wicket-taker in IPL history during 2023 season

Yuzvendra Chahal recently etched his name in the history books as he became the leading wicket-taker in the history of IPL with 187 wickets to his name from 145 matches. The 32-year-old who played for Rajasthan Royals in the 2023 edition,  left behind former West Indian and Chennai Super Kings all-rounder, Dwayne Bravo, who had picked 183 wickets in 161 matches. 

He will be next seen playing in the ODI and T20I series against West Indies beginning on July 27. The wrist-spinner will be eager to continue his brilliant form to get selected in the team for the ODI World Cup 2023 scheduled to take place in India from October 5, later this year.
