Punjab Kings spinner Yuzvendra Chahal got a hilarious reality check by Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell during a training session in Chennai.
The Indian leg spinner was showing off his bat, which he received as a gift from Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, to his teammates in the away dressing room at the MA Chidambaram stadium.
“What are you gonna do with it?”
After confirming it was Dhoni’s bat, Maxwell quipped, “What are YOU gonna do with it?” before delivering the devastating blow, “You get subbed out in every game.”
That wasn’t the end of trolling for the veteran leg spinner as youngster Priyansh Arya chirped in with a joke of his own. Talking about Chahal’s prized possession, the left-hand batsman said, “Some kid in Haryana is going to take this bat for sure.”
