Yuzvendra Chahal, a veteran spinner for India, said that he often keeps quiet around MS Dhoni, a former captain. Chahal is known for his funny acts on and off the field, which have gotten a lot of attention from fans.
But in a recent interview, the veteran leggie talked about his relationship with legendary cricketer Dhoni and how he likes to keep quiet about Dhoni.
“He is the only person who makes me stop talking
In an interview, Chahal said, “MS Dhoni is the only person I stop talking in front of. No matter how I feel, I don’t talk a lot. I just sit there quietly and talk to Mahi bhai only when he asks me something. Otherwise, I keep quiet.”
When Mahendra Singh Dhoni was on Chahal’s side
Yuzvendra Chahal also talked about when Dhoni helped him on a “off day.” Chahal told about a funny thing that happened when he got 64 runs in four overs in a T20 match against South Africa. But Chahal pointed out that even though he was having a “off day” on the field, it was Dhoni who supported him and told him to calm down and not get angry.
Chahal said, “We were playing a Twenty20 match in Centurion against South Africa. I got 64 runs in four overs for the first time. (Heinrich) Klaasen was beating me, so he asked me if I could bowl around the wicket. I said okay, but then Klaasen hit me for six.
He also said, “I was going back when Mahi bhai came up to me and said, “Today is not your day, you have nothing to say.” But he said I still have five balls. I should try not to hit him for outs because it’s better for the team. From that, I learned that you can still help the team even if you’re having a bad day.
