Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal finally managed to get MS Dhoni to interact with him on a new episode of his video series, ‘Chahal TV’.
While travelling to Cardiff for India’s second warm-up game, Chahal found time to interact with MS Dhoni on the team bus. However, Dhoni very cheekily avoided the cameras and asked Chahal to talk to his spinning partner Kuldeep Yadav instead.
“Jabse yeh hamare saath baithe hai yahan pe, phone ki battery 5-6 baar charge kar chuke hai”, Chahal said to Kuldeep. Kuldeep asked Chahal to interview MS Dhoni to which he replied “Mahi bhai se lenge toh bohot pitayee hogi bata rahe hain”.
MS Dhoni then got into the conversation and then asked Chahal to ask Kuldeep “aap kisse baat kar rahe hain”.
Kuldeep replied saying “main kisi se baat nahi kar rahan, Kishore Kumar ke gaane sun raha hun dekho”.
On hearing that Kuldeep was listening to Kishore Kumar songs Chahal took a sly dig at his spinning partner.
“Iss choti si umar mein Kishore Kumar ke gaane sun raha hai matlab aap samajh sakte hai ki dil mein kitni chot hain” said Chahal to Kuldeep.
Listening to this Kuldeep burst out in laughter and replied “chot nahi hai bas gaane aache hai isliye sun raha hun”.
Chahal then capped off his episode saying “Aur yahan pe Mahi bhai peheli baar Chahal TV pe aate hue”.
The Indian team kick off their World Cup campaign by playing against South Africa on 5 June in Southampton.
