"Three dot balls should be 1 wicket bhaiya"- Yuzvendra Chahal gives an interesting reply to Aakash Chopra's tweet
Rajasthan Royals (RR) leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal had an interesting reaction to Aakash Chopra's recent proposal on Twitter. The former Indian Test opener tweeted on Sunday night that 100-meter sixes should fetch a batter eight runs instead of six.
This came after Chopra witnessed Punjab Kings batter Liam Livingstone hit a 108-meter six against CSK during his blazing 60-run knock in the first innings.
Here is what Aakash Chopra said:
"100+ metre six should be given an 8."
Yuzvendra Chahal took note of Chopra's suggestion and gave a reasonable reply to the tweet. The leg-spinner recommended that a batter should be declared out if three consecutive dots are delivered.
He replied:
"Three dot balls should be 1 wicket bhaiya"
Yuzvendra Chahal will come up against his former franchise RCB in his next IPL 2022 game
Ahead of IPL 2022, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) parted ways with Chahal as they did not retain him and also didn't show any interest in buying him back at the auction later.
Subsequently, Rajasthan Royals signed the talented leg-spinner at the mega auction.
The 31-year-old has been in outstanding form in IPL 2022, contributing significantly to the victories of both of his IPL teams thus far. With five wickets in two games, Chahal is presently ranked third on the list of Purple Cap in IPL 2022.
An in-form Chahal will now square up against his former franchise when RR takes on RCB in their next match on April 5. It will be interesting to see how he fares against his former teammates.
